Hern made the announcement shortly after a closed-door meeting with Republicans on Tuesday evening.

It is unclear whether Hern’s withdrawal will have any impact on the outcome of the Speaker race or if it will sway the opinions of other Republican representatives. The support of Mike Johnson by Hern may give Johnson additional credibility and support as he continues his bid for the speakership.
