Michelle Steel Falls in Line Behind Trump and Votes for Extreme Conspiracy Theorist Jim Jordan for Speaker

Michelle Steel voted today for MAGA extremist Jim Jordan for speaker in the chaotic, ongoing GOP leadership fight. This follows Donald Trump’s endorsement of Jordan earlier this month.

Steel had every opportunity to embrace a bipartisan governing coalition, but chose to enable their MAGA colleagues instead.

Thanks to Michelle Steel, speaker candidate Jim Jordan has been given the greenlight to push an extreme, dangerous agenda that:

• Defunds federal law enforcement.

• Passes a nationwide abortion ban with no exceptions.

• Repeals investments that are creating good-paying jobs and reinvigorating American manufacturing.

• Cuts Social Security and ends Medicare as we know it.

DCCC Spokesperson Dan Gottlieb:
“By voting for Jim Jordan, Michelle Steel has once again given in to the most extreme fringes of her party and embraced an agenda of promoting conspiracy theories, taking away women’s reproductive freedom, and defunding law enforcement. Californians will resoundingly reject this MAGA extremism next year in favor of Democrats’ focus on expanding the middle class and protecting our freedoms.”
