"So go to better.gop and take a look at what a unified Republican government can get you. And then vote Republican -- Donald Trump, our Senate candidates and our House candidates -- so we can start turning things around," Ryan wrote in the op-ed published by CNN.

Ryan also reportedly told reporters on Saturday that he would attend a rally for Trump in Wisconsin on Sunday, shortly before the event was canceled.

In October, Ryan said that he would no longer defend the Republican nominee in light of a 2005 Access Hollywood hot mic tape on which the real estate mogul was heard making sexually obscene comments about women.

Trump grew frustrated with the Speaker, going after Ryan's leadership on Twitter and suggesting that Ryan might not be Speaker if he won the White House.

“The fact is, I think we should get support, and we don’t get the support from guys like Paul Ryan,” Trump said during an interview on Fox News last month. Ryan announced earlier this week that he cast an early vote for the GOP nominee.

"This election offers a fundamental choice: between staying on the current path of decline, or taking a better way that offers more freedom for every single American," Ryan wrote Saturday.

"Only Republicans are offering a better way. A unified Republican government will dedicate itself to reclaiming our founding principles and solving the country's problems," he wrote.

The Speaker went on to outline the House GOP's policy agenda, including steps to fight poverty, securing the U.S. border, rebuilding the military, repealing Obamacare and repairing the tax code.

"For her, the driving force is the government -- not the individual -- and the bureaucracy is filled with unelected insiders who decide what is best for us on their whim, not our consent. It is as arrogant, condescending and paternalistic as it gets," he wrote.
