House Democrats Fume at Mike Johnson

“House Democrats are seething at Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) as they press him to ignore hardliners’ calls to allow a government shutdown,” Axios reports.

“Democrats see the window closing to prevent a partial shutdown on Friday unless Congress comes to a deal on funding legislation.”

Said Rep. Greg Landsman (D-OH): “It’s literally up to one person, the Speaker, and whether he’ll ignore his far right obstructionist members and let us vote on them.”
