On Monday, a Republican congressman said that House Speaker Paul Ryan is rumored to be stepping down in the next two months and that Rep. Steve Scalise (R-LA) will be his replacement.
"The rumor mill is that Paul Ryan is getting ready to resign in the next 30 to 60 days and that Steve Scalise will be the new Speaker," Rep. Mark Amodei (R-NV) said.
"Now that is interesting because nobody has talked to members (of the House of Representatives) on how they are going to vote (on new leadership)," Amodei continued. "Now, maybe they have talked to all of the members but me. I don't know, so that is the rumor mill from last week."

When asked why Ryan would resign now, Amodei was not able to give a solid answer as he suggested it could be because he accomplished the goals he sought to achieve or because he could be gearing up for a different political office.
