House Conservatives Not Yet Sold on Paul Ryan

Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH), the founder of the House Freedom Caucus, says his group is not sold on Rep. Paul Ryan (R-WI) for Speaker, The Hill reports.

Said Jornda: “Well, look, Paul Ryan is a friend, I meet with him every single week, we talk about policy, I think he’s be a great messenger. He’ll come in front of our group and talk to us, I think our group would be favorable towards him, but we’re not there yet.”

He added that his 40-to-50-member group would be willing to support Ryan if he committed to decentralizing power in the House.
