Sen. Josh Hawley (R-MO) is talking “one-on-one” with Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) about how to get a program for radiation exposure victims reauthorized in the House.

Hawley told reporters Thursday that he has spoken with Johnson “personally” in recent days about the Radiation Exposure Compensation Act, signaling fresh hope that a deal can be hammered out before the end of the year.
