The House Republican Main Street Caucus sent a letter to Speaker Mike Johnson on Tuesday morning, urging him to look at three sets of priorities.
EXCLUSIVE: An influential House GOP caucus is urging Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., to work with 'willing partners' in the Senate on a border security reform deal in a Tuesday morning letter outlining their priorities for the new GOP leader. The business-minded Main Street Caucus outlined three major points they are calling the speaker’s attention to: Avoiding a government shutdown, establishing a debt commission, and enhancing national security.
While our bill did not pass the House, it was clear there was willingness among many Senators to find solutions to the border crisis,' the letter said. 'We ask that you prioritize a plan to secure the border with willing partners in the Senate as soon as possible.' On the FISA front, their call to reauthorize it 'with input from across the Conference' is likely to cause friction with a few of the more libertarian members of the House GOP.
