Truly the most important thing the interim House speaker should be focusing on right now - petty bullshit while someone is mourning a colleague. /s

    Honestly, we don’t know.

    This is the first time that the Speaker Pro Tempore position has actually been filled, and it was originally intended to have Congress function after an attack while also providing for a line of succession to the President.

    It is expected that the House is going to need to elect a new Speaker, as that election is going to impact how the House runs itself.
