Paul Ryan Elected Speaker of the House

Paul Ryan

Paul Ryan was elected speaker of the house last Thursday and has become the youngest speaker of the house in 150 years. 236 Republicans backed Paul Ryan, 18 more than he needed. Daniel Webster from Florida also ran but only received 9 of the republican votes, and almost every democrat voted for Nancy Pelosi. Ryan vowed to give every member of the House a chance to have their say in legislation.
