Louisiana Congressman Mike Johnson of Benton was re-elected as House Speaker, but it came with drama. Two Republican Congressmen initially voted for someone else, but switched their support when given another chance, giving Johnson the necessary votes to retain the gavel. Johnson told the House it’s time to get to work and that means putting Americans first again…
“We’re going to protect our industries from one-sided trade deal and were going to bring overseas investments back to American’s shores. We’ll defeat the harmful effects of inflation, and we’ll make life affordable again for America’s hardworking people.”
Johnson says there will be a focus on common sense legislation that includes strengthening the southern border, renewing the Trump era tax cuts and returning to energy dominance…
“Im very thankful, personally that this body is filled with men and women who are committed to that change to return to common sense. We can do this together. We should, and its our responsibility to do so.”
