Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL) pushed back on Sunday against House Speaker Mike Johnson’s (R-LA) rosy assessment of Congress’s productivity, warning that the body of lawmakers has become “a mere observer of the constitutional system.”
DeSantis made the statement in response to data from the Washington Post showing that Congress sent roughly 40 bills to President Donald Trump’s desk in 2025, setting a modern record for the lowest legislative output in the first year of a new presidency.
