Declaring the office of Speaker of the House of Representatives to be vacant.
Summary
House Resolution 1209 was a formal legislative measure intended to remove the sitting Speaker of the House of Representatives from their leadership position. If the resolution had passed, the House would have been required to halt all legislative business to hold a series of votes to elect a new Speaker. While the resolution was introduced on May 8, 2024, it was immediately blocked by a bipartisan vote to table the motion, meaning the House did not move forward with the removal process and continued its regular operations.
