Interview with U.S. House Speaker Mike Johnson on Tariff Proposals and Congressional Challenges

Published April 3, 2025 | Video Starts at 10:31

We had the smallest margin in U.S. history. We had a one vote margin for much of the first hundred days of this Congress and this new Trump administration. We won two big seats in Florida this week. And I've already administered the oath of office to those two new members. And so now we have a margin. We have 220 Republicans, 215 Democrats. I can work with that. That gives us a three vote margin on any vote. (10:31–10:39)
