Speaker Johnson and House GOP Leadership Give Remarks on Day 29 of Government Shutdown

Published | Video Starts at 32:51

Well, you all know what I'm hearing from my members because our calls are leaked every week and we had a conference call with, you know, almost everyone yesterday. By our count, there's about 23 to four members of the House Republican Conference who have only mildly questioned working in the districts as opposed to being here on the floor. And we talk through that in as much detail as we can on a call that I know is being printed on the front page of all the papers the next morning. (32:51–33:02)

CLAIM
