Newly-elected Speaker Mike Johnson was sworn in to replace ex-Speaker Kevin McCarthy, whose ousting three weeks ago set off nearly a month of chaos in the GOP.
After three weeks of failed votes and acrimony between moderate and conservative factions, House Republicans united around Johnson, 51, late Tuesday night. His priorities leading the chamber include getting government spending “back on track,” supporting Israel, and restoring order to the House and Republican leadership.
Johnson outlined seven “core principles” of conservatism in his first speech from the speaker’s dais: “Individual freedom, limited government, the rule of law, peace through strength, fiscal responsibility, free markets and human dignity.”
At a press conference, he said “the hour is late and the crisis is great” — and promised to get to business immediately. The House has until Nov. 17 to set federal spending, or risk a partial government shutdown.
Every Democrat present voted for Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries.
