That reassurance came after Rep. Mark Amodei told a Nevada news show he'd heard a rumor that Ryan was getting ready to resign.

House Speaker Paul Ryan has become increasingly frustrated with a job he never wanted in the first place.

When asked why Ryan would want to leave, Amodei speculated that Ryan probably accomplished everything he wanted since Congress gave the wealthy a major tax cut previous year.

"The speaker is not resigning", a Ryan spokeswoman, AshLee Strong, told The Associated Press.

Some Wisconsin students are taking the momentum of weekend demonstrations against gun violence on the road - straight to House Speaker Paul Ryan's district.

But the former Republican vice-presidential candidate also hasn't committed to running for re-election this fall, telling several media outlets over the past three months that he hasn't yet discussed the possibility of running for another term in Congress with his wife.

After being listed in critical condition, he recovered and returned to Congress in September 2017. The Shorewood high schoolers started their walk on Sunday, and they'll travel about 12 miles a day until they reach Ryan's office in Janesville on Wednesday.

He says the marchers want common sense gun reform, or they want politicians voted out of office if they won't do anything. "You know, John Boehner said the same thing: 'Hey, when I checked all of the boxes I thought were important and I'm moving on to whatever else'".

But Amodei publicly reopened the discussion that has been kept to private whispers within the House Republican Conference about whether Ryan will run to lead the House GOP next year.

Meanwhile, a Scalise staffer told WDSU-New Orleans the Majority Whip was "proud to serve alongside Speaker Ryan, and fully supports him to remain speaker".

Ryan was Mitt Romney's vice presidential nominee in the 2012 election.
