Jim Jordan undecided whether to push for leadership role on Judiciary Committee
by Robert Donachie
November 19, 2018 02:44 PM House Freedom Caucus co-founder Jim Jordan hasn't made up his mind whether to push to become the top Republican on the House Judiciary Committee, and his chances for winning that spot may be quickly slipping away.
President Trump has been pushing Rep. Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., the likely House minority leader next year, to get Jordan on the committee. Trump is reportedly keen on getting Jordan to that committee, as he's a staunch ally of Trump's who would fight Democrats on the committee — Trump often calls Jordan a "warrior" during appearances on Fox News.
But Rep. Doug Collins, R-Ga., is seen as a near lock for the position, and Jordan hasn't made any move to contest the position.
