Rep. Mike Johnson‘s (R-LA) exceptional performance under the most trying circumstances has only strengthened my unwavering support for his continued tenure as speaker of the House. Ousting him would have detrimental repercussions, potentially leading to further division within our party and dysfunction in Congress. We must stand united as a solid Republican Party, avoiding any splits that could weaken us. 

Before Johnson came to Congress, he was a constitutional litigator, standing up for religious liberty, the Second Amendment, free speech, and the pro-life community. Over a 20-year career, he fought for our constitutionally guaranteed rights and for preserving core American values. The speaker has argued in court on behalf of families denied the ability to discuss God and their faith in schools openly, missionaries barred from distributing literature in public, and pro-life protesters unfairly targeted by city hall. This dedication to faith, freedom, and the central principles of conservatism define Johnson and remain the guiding pillars of his career.
