LIVE VIDEO: US House Members Vote On New Speaker

The Hill reports:

It’s a huge day in the House, with Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) set to be elected to a second stint as Speaker, and Democrats ready to take control of the body and pass legislation that would end the shutdown.

The day will begin with the Speaker’s vote and also include the swearing in of new members.

Votes on the legislation to end the shutdown will come later. The bills have been rejected by President Trump and the Senate, which remains in GOP hands.
