Jordan is urging his Republican colleagues to support his bid for speaker, according to a letter from Jordan obtained by Just the News.

“We are at a critical crossroad in our nation’s history,” Jordan wrote. “The problems we face are challenging, but they are not insurmountable.”

Jordan also said he had spoken with House Majority Leader Steve Scalise (R-La.), the No. 2 Republican, who is reportedly considering running for speaker after McCarthy said he would not enter the race again, according to CNN.
