A speaker of the House has finally been confirmed and Congressman Nick Langworthy and Congresswoman Claudia Tenney have offered their congratulations to Louisiana Congressman Mike Johnson.
On X, Congressman Langworthy posted a photo of himself with the new Speaker on the House floor with the caption “Congratulations to our new Speaker of the House, Mike Johnson. Let’s get to work!”
Rep. Tenney released the following statement:
“Congratulations to my dear friend, Speaker Mike Johnson, on being elected Speaker of the United States House of Representatives. Mike Johnson is an inspirational conservative who will restore faith in our government and bring strong, principled leadership to America.
“Speaker Johnson is committed to restoring transparency to Congress, reining in runaway spending, holding our adversaries accountable, and strengthening oversight of federal bureaucrats. Though 70% of appropriation priorities have already been passed in the House, the remaining appropriations bills will be considered expeditiously.
“Speaker Johnson’s first action was to immediately open the People’s House in order to bring a bipartisan resolution to the floor in support of the nation of Israel, our most important ally in the Middle East. He is immediately addressing issues critically important to the American people. This starts with direct action on the border crisis, prioritizing legislation to address runaway inflation due to far-left spending under Pelosi and Biden.
“Speaker Johnson will renew our commitment to backing our courageous officers in blue, empowering parents’ rights against the hostile agenda imposed by the Biden Administration and its weaponized law enforcement agencies, unleash American energy production which will lead to greater freedom, prosperity, and security for all Americans.
“House Republicans understand this historic moment for America and are laser-focused on providing leadership, restoring transparency and responsible government, and achieving real results for the American people.”
