Speaker Johnson Stands Firm on Foreign Aid Package Despite GOP Backlash

House Speaker Mike Johnson says he won't resign despite anger from Republicans over his proposed foreign aid package.

Johnson refers to himself as a "wartime speaker" and says he'll rely on Democrat votes to pass the aid package over GOP objections.

The aid package would provide support for Ukraine, Israel, and Indo-Pacific allies in separate votes before being combined.

Some Republicans predict Johnson won't be able to hold votes on the package this week as planned due to lack of support.

Republican Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene has filed a motion to try to oust Johnson as Speaker, though it has little support so far.
