Republican leader John Boehner and Congressman Greg Walden (R-Ore.) spoke briefly to reporters this morning in the Capitol. Boehner, the minority leader who is expected to be elected speaker of the House, and Walden, the chair of the House majority transition team, gave a few details about the incoming Republican majority’s agenda.
