Congressman Jim Bridenstine says he will vote to re-elect Speaker John Boehner in January, and some insiders say he’s posturing for a choice committee assignment after his first term in office.
Bridenstine delighted conservatives with his vote against Boehner two years ago, but maintained in an opinion article he penned in the Tulsa World on Friday that he will stick with his Republican caucus in the
upcoming vote.
Bridenstine says with a larger GOP majority poised to take charge next year, it would be unlikely for “conservatives” to garner enough votes to be successful.
