Johnson’s future speakership could hinge on spending fight
House Speaker Mike Johnson faces a critical September showdown over government spending amid a looming October 1 shutdown deadline.
With pressures from the GOP’s hard-right flank and the broader House majority, Johnson must navigate a tricky balance between conservative demands and bipartisan cooperation.
He has opted initially to push a conservative-friendly stopgap bill, which includes controversial measures like proof-of-citizenship requirements for voter registration, despite its low chances of passing in the Democrat-controlled Senate.
Johnson’s strategy aims to secure support from his conservative base, crucial for his leadership bid next year.
The outcome of the spending fight and the overall election results will significantly impact his chances of retaining the speakership, especially given the potential challenge from figures like Jim Jordan, Steve Scalise, and Tom Emmer, Politico has reported.
