The inability of House Republicans to elect a new speaker of the House has forced the leadership of committees to postpone or shorten planned hearings.

Rep. Aaron Bean , the chairman of the subcommittee, told the Washington Examiner in an interview after the hearing that the Republican leadership"threw us a curveball" and scheduled a meeting 45 minutes after the hearing began. The Thursday hearing was the second time in as many days a subcommittee hearing of the House Education and Workforce Committee was affected by the speaker saga. On Wednesday, the Subcommittee on Health, Employment, Labor, and Pensions postponed a planned hearing on"Protecting Workers and Small Businesses from Biden's Attack on Worker Free Choice and Economic Growth.”
