Though many U.S. House Republicans quickly accepted President-elect Donald Trump’s endorsement of Speaker Mike Johnson for reelection, a few are still smarting from the recent continuing resolution battle and are threatening to withhold support.
U.S. Rep. Victoria Spartz, R-Ind., said that Johnson will not win her vote unless he complies with a list of conservative demands. She said the next speaker must exhibit “courageous leadership” and be someone who “won’t sell us out to the swamp.”
“If we are serious about governing, our next SPEAKER must COMMIT PUBLICLY to create at least temporary structures in the House for: 1) authorizations; 2) reconciliation offset policies, and 3) spending audits,” Spartz detailed in a statement.
