LIZ CHENEY FOR SPEAKER OF THE HOUSE [1] ['This Content Is Not Subject To Review Daily Kos Staff Prior To Publication.'] Date: 2023-10-14 The Fight for Speaker of the House is far from over! In the wake of more than 50 Republicans voting against Rep. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) as the speaker nominee, a compelling momentum is silently but surely gathering strength on Capitol Hill. At the epicenter of this political shift stands former Congresswoman Liz Cheney. The resonance of her name is now palpable within the Republican party, making it imperative for us to heed this call for a principled Speaker of the House. In the midst of extreme polarization and ongoing partisan conflicts, Liz Cheney stands out as an politician with a resolute, no-nonsense attitude for BS. She embodies the very essence of the core values that have defined the Grand Old Party for generations – limited government, fiscal responsibility, and an unyielding devotion to the Constitution, our sacred covenant with the American people. Crucially, the Speaker of the House is not mandated to be affiliated with any party or hold a current political seat, providing an opportunity for Liz Cheney to assume the role without the typical compromises and political maneuvers. Her earlier status as the third highest-ranking Republican in the House, behind Kevin McCarthy and Steve Scalise, underscores her journey from a prominent Republican figure to becoming a respected figure among Democrats, showcasing her commitment to principles over partisanship. It is our responsibility of the Republican Party to rally behind a champion of conservatism and protector of the Constitution. In the words of Ronald Reagan, who celebrated the power of individual liberty and a government whose authority derives from the people. With Liz Cheney, we catch a glimpse of a brighter, more united America – a nation that can once again shine as a beacon of freedom and opportunity for all. With determination and fervor, we call upon the Republican Party to choose Liz Cheney as the Speaker of the House. In doing so, we honor the rich legacy of a party founded on principles of liberty, limited government, and an unwavering commitment to the Constitution.
