Speaker
Paul Ryan, R-Wis., backed down Thursday and gave the
Rev. Patrick Conroy his
job back as House chaplain.
Ryan,
who touched off a controversy among lawmakers in
both parties when he forced
Conroy from the post last month,
reversed himself just hours after Conroy
wrote to the speaker,
saying he was withdrawing his letter of resignation.
Ryan said
he was acting because "I know that this body is not well
served
by a protracted fight over such an important post."
