Mace: I’m Unaware Of Sexual Abuse Coverup By Jordan

October 8, 2023 Politics, Republicans

Rep. Nancy Mace (R-S.C.) announced on Sunday that she intends to support Rep. Jim Jordan’s (R-Ohio) bid for Speaker, following her vote last Tuesday to remove former Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) from his post.

“I will tell you today, I am going to be supporting Jim Jordan for speaker for a number of reasons,” Mace said in an interview on CBS’s “Face the Nation,” pointing to “his values, his work ethic, his ability to just run circles around everyone with regards to policy and pushing forward.”

Mace voted with seven of her Republican colleagues and all House Democrats to remove McCarthy from the Speakership, leaving the position vacant. She has said McCarthy made promises to her, especially in support of women’s issues, that she claims he did not keep as Speaker.
