The speaker of the United States House of Representatives, commonly known as the speaker of the House, is the presiding officer of the United States House of Representatives.
The current House speaker is Republican Kevin McCarthy of California. He was elected on January 7, 2023, at the beginning of the 118th Congress, after 15 ballots were taken.
This market will resolve to NO if for any reason McCarthy ceases to be House Speaker before the end of 2023.

“No. If five, if five Republicans go with Democrats, then I’m out. So it’s whether,” McCarthy replied, as Scott interjected, “It looks likely.”
“Probably so,” McCarthy conceded.
