Johnson Is Re-elected as Home Speaker
After two last-minute vote modifications by Republican holdouts, Consultant Mike Johnson of Louisiana secured a majority of votes.
“Our people are asking for a thriving economy and a rebuilt middle class, and strong borders and a strong military, and we can deliver that. See these objectives and these aims don’t have an R or a D behind them. They have a U.S.A. That’s what we’re about. Working together, we have the potential to be one of the most consequential congresses in the history of this great nation. So long as we work together, we do the right thing and we put America first.” “Do you solemnly swear that you will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic, that you will bear true faith and allegiance to the same, that you take this obligation freely, that you take this obligation without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion, and that you will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which you’re about to enter, so help you God?” “I do.” “Congratulations, Mr. Speaker.”
