Mike Johnson (R-LA) was reelected to serve as Speaker of the House for the 119 th Congress: “I was proud to vote in support of Speaker Mike Johnson on the House floor. He is the right person to lead our conference as we use the mandate President-elect Trump was given by the American people to change how Washington works. Johnson is a man of faith, strong moral character, and is a constitutional law expert. We are blessed to have his perspective in the House Republican Conference, and I look forward to securing the southern border, unleashing American energy dominance, protecting our cities, fighting the scourge of fentanyl, and Making America Great Once Again under his leadership.” ###
