Some Republicans say there can be no new speaker without a decision on next year’s fiscal budget.
WASHINGTON: Republicans in the US Congress face new pressure to select a House speaker after Israel declared war on Sunday, following a rare attack by Hamas militants that has prompted calls for more US military aid.
The House is expected to vote this week for a replacement for Republican speaker Kevin McCarthy. Until then, it cannot approve new aid. Any House bill that includes severe spending cuts is unlikely to pass the Democrat-controlled Senate.
