Washington, D.C. – Following Representative Mike Johnson (LA-04) being elected as Speaker of the House, Rep. Gary Palmer (AL-06) released the following statement:

“This is an important day for the country,” said Rep. Palmer. “House Republicans are united behind a principled, unwavering conservative in Speaker Mike Johnson. Mike is a good friend I have worked closely with, and I know he will live out his faith in God by leading the House with honor as we serve the American people. Mike is committed to a plan of action to get our fiscal house in order, address the rampant illegal immigration at our southern border, and fill the void of leadership President Biden has left on the world stage.”

Palmer concluded, “Speaker Johnson and the House Republicans are ready to work for the American people.”
