Speaker Johnson Delivers Remarks After Vote to Open Government

Published | Video Starts at 02:01

I'm pleased that tonight on the CR, we had three appropriations bills that we've now will send over to the President's desk in just a short amount of time tonight to get signed into law. That's an innovation, too. As you all know, It's been years since Congress actually did separate appropriations bills. I'm proud of that achievement, but I'm really sad that it took us so long to get here. It was so much pain that had to be endured to get to this point. (02:01–02:06)
