A Fox News debate between House Majority Leader Steve Scalise (R-La.) and Rep. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) is off, their spokespeople confirmed to The Epoch Times.

Rep. Kevin Hern (R-Okla.), chairman of the Republican Study Committee, is also considering a bid for the gavel. But he posted on X, formerly Twitter, that he would not do a Fox News speaker race forum.
