House Republicans have elected Rep. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) as House minority leader for the next Congress, starting in January.
He defeated House Majority Leader Steve Scalise (R-La.) for the House GOP leader role. Jordan will face opposition from Democrats, who have pledged to investigate the Trump administration, and will be tasked with taking back the House in 2028.
Jordan is currently chairman of the House Judiciary Committee. He was first elected to Congress in 2006 from Ohio’s 4th Congressional District.
