Rep. Patrick McHenry (R-NC) believes House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) has to “be better” for the House to “get things done” as the government faces a partial shutdown this week.

McHenry, who served as speaker pro tempore in October after the ouster of former Speaker Kevin McCarthy, sounded frustrated over the lack of progress on a deal to keep the government funded, telling CNN’s Manu Raju, “We can avoid [the shutdown] … but it’s time to get on with the deal rather than dither. We can do it.”
