With the 85th Legislative Session near, House Speaker Joe Straus appears likely to face no challenger for the gavel, a notable shift from prior sessions when conservatives pressured him. Critics say no consensus challenger has emerged though a movement could form. Straus notes he must earn trust of the House and remains the early, only-listed candidate with no declared opposition. Rep. Matt Krause says he will vote for Straus if needed.
