Mike Johnson Confident ahead of House Vote on Spending Bill

Published | Video Starts at 11:03

A difficult vote on a cr. Yeah, it's a great question. I'll rewind and replay the chairman of the House Freedom Caucus here, Dr. Andy Harris, who said it so well. This is a different CR than anything we've seen in our careers in Congress. I've been here eight years, he's been here a bit longer. It normally is something that's a patchwork to give us more time to try to get to the appropriations process. This is totally different. A year long cr, which is the first that I think we've had. I don't know that there is a precedent for an actual year long cr. It solves the problem because it freezes federal spending. (11:03–11:21)

CLAIM

Asserts that the current CR is unprecedented as a year-long resolution.
