RJC Congratulates Speaker Mike Johnson

Washington, DC - The Republican Jewish Coalition congratulates House Speaker Mike Johnson on being elected to continue leading the House of Representatives. RJC National Chairman Senator Norm Coleman and CEO Matt Brooks said:

Congratulations, Speaker Johnson⁩! We are thrilled to continue working with you as you lead the 119th Congress.

With Republicans leading the way, a new Golden Age for America begins!

The RJC strongly endorsed Mike Johnson for Speaker, stating:

[Rep. Mike Johnson]  has shown courageous leadership and moral clarity in taking bold action to stand shoulder-to-shoulder with the American Jewish community against unprecedented levels of antisemitism, and resolutely defended the State of Israel as it continues to fight an existential war against Iran and its terrorist proxies.

Speaker Johnson has more than earned our full-throated and enthusiastic support to lead the Republican Majority in the 119th Congress.

The RJC was also proud to participate in a conservative coalition letter in support of Speaker Johnson. The letter says, in part:

Speaker Johnson is the right leader for House Republicans at this important moment in American history.

...We cannot afford for any part of the Trump agenda to be delayed. We encourage conservative lawmakers to swiftly reelect Speaker Johnson so we can turn our focus to immediately enacting the Trump agenda.

As RJC CEO Matt Brooks said, "We are excited by his victory and look forward to working with him in the important work ahead!!"
