Speaker Johnson must return People’s House to needs of the people
Fox News
New Republican Speaker Mike Johnson has a chance to get the People’s House to embrace the needs of the American people. He must stand strong on the border, economy and Israel.
To start, Johnson must lead House Republicans in providing the necessary and immediate support to our ally Israel in its existential battle against Hamas. While President Joe Biden and the Senate use support for Israel as a pawn to secure more funding for Ukraine and other domestic programs, House Republicans must make clear that this is no time for games. Dr. Kevin Roberts is president of the Heritage Foundation. He serves as the seventh president in Heritage’s 48-year history.
For too long, the D.C. swamp’s inhabitants have been either unwilling or unable to step up and do what is necessary to deliver results for the American people. But their failures only underscore the historic opportunity for the new speaker of the House.
