The White House says it wants nothing to do with the fight over who will be second in line to the presidency.

White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said on Oct. 2 that President Joe Biden is staying out of any fight for Speaker of the House. President Biden, who served in the Senate for almost five decades, has no “vote in this matter,” she said.
