Beyner faced opposition in the ranks of his own party.

John Beyner is likely to be reelected as Speaker of the House of Representatives on Tuesday, but the reinforcing conservative faction in the Republican Party may prevent him from carrying out complex bills this year.

The new 114 congress will begin work on Tuesday.

On Monday, congressmen Steve King from Iowa and Marlene Stutzman from Indiana joined the group of prominent conservatives who announced that they would vote against the election of Beyner for a third term as speaker.

One of the Republican newcomers in the House, Dave Bret, a favorite of the Tea Party Movement, also announced that he would vote against Beyner.

“Although I like the man like Beyner, he will not get my support in the election of the speaker,” wrote Brett in an article published on the conservative site Breitbart.com. “One of the reasons for Washington’s bankruptcy is the departure of our party from its principles of free market, limited government and constitutional conservatism.”

Texas Congressman Louis Gaumert, who had allied with the conservative "Tea Party" movement, said he would also run for the post of speaker. Congressman Ted Yoho from Florida also admitted that he could compete with Beyner, who has been the speaker since Republicans gained a majority in the House of Representatives in 2011.

Conservative Republican congressmen have criticized Beiner for not making enough efforts, in their opinion, to thwart President Barack Obama’s initiatives, but so far the opposition does not have enough votes to block Beiner's re-election to the post of speaker.

Given that Republicans make up the strongest majority in the ward since 1947 of the year, Beyner can afford to lose the Republicans ’28 votes and still get the votes needed for the 218 election.

Opposition to Boehner stems in part from conservative outrage over the approval in December of a federal spending bill that did not block funding for Obama's immigration order, which removed the threat of deportation from millions of undocumented immigrants, Voice of America writes.
