Freedom Caucus chair says Speaker Johnson must ‘reassert authority’ amid GOP infighting over spending plan
Fox News
House Freedom Caucus Chairman Scott Perry told Fox News Digital that House Speaker Mike Johnson will likely have ground to make up with the GOP conference after Tuesday evening's vote.
"He could have sent, I think…something that's reasonable that the Senate would not be able to resist, but that's not going to be the case here. And so, I think in that circumstance going forward, he's going to have to somehow reassert some authority that hasn't been asserted now."

Perry is part of the growing Republican opposition to Johnson’s plan, a simple extension of last year’s funding priorities known as a continuing resolution (CR). His "laddered" approach would set two different funding deadlines for Congress’ 12 individual appropriations bills – a Jan. 19 date for four of the less traditionally controversial bills, and Feb. 2 for the others.
