On Wednesday, the House will convene for the start of the 112th Congress at 12:00 p.m. There will be a recorded quorum call at 12:00 p.m. following the Prayer and Pledge of Allegiance. Last votes expected: 4:30 – 5:00 p.m.
Election of the Speaker of the House
Swearing-in of Members and Delegates
H.Res. 5 - A resolution providing for the House Rules of the 112th Congress (Privileged Resolution)
Congressmen Eric Cantor, Kevin McCarthy, and new Budget Chairman Paul Ryan formed Young Guns for the NRCC. They recruited a lot of the new candidates from across the Country and spent countless hours campaigning for these candidates who will now be sworn in tomorrow as members of the Freshman class of the 112th Congress. Kevin McCarthy is just one of many rising stars in the House for Republicans -- very impressed with his demeanor and speaking ability. His tireless campaigning for new candidates has won him wide support from the Republican Caucus.
These three men -- Boehner, Cantor, and McCarthy are well suited to hold the top three positions in the Congress for Republicans.
We wish them well as they begin the tough task of governing to begin to right the ship. They will need our support and our prayers in the days ahead as they fight the far left liberal agenda from Obama and the Pelosi democrats. We believe these three and others of the Republican Leadership Team are up the task.
At noon tomorrow would suggest you turn into CSPAN so you can see Speaker-Elect Boehner elected by the House and the swearing-in of Members and Delegates which will officially commence the new 112th Congress under the new leadership of Speaker John Boehner, Majority Leader Eric Cantor (R-VA), and Whip Kevin McCarthy from CA.
