Mike Johnson has been elected Speaker of the House of Representatives, ending weeks of chaos and Republican infighting on Capitol Hill.
The conservative Louisiana lawmaker won with 220 votes in the lower chamber of Congress.
Mr Johnson is the fourth Republican nominated for the position since Kevin McCarthy’s ouster on 3 October.
The previous nominee, Minnesota’s Tom Emmer, abruptly dropped out of the race on Tuesday after about four hours.
