WASHINGTON, DC – U.S. Congressman Brian Babin (TX-36) issued the following statement following his vote for Congressman Mike Johnson (LA-04) for Speaker of the House.

“Democracy can certainly be messy, but I never doubted for a second that we would come together as a conference to elect a true conservative as Speaker. Today, I was incredibly proud to have supported my good friend and Louisiana neighbor, Congressman Mike Johnson, for Speaker of the House,” said Babin. “He’s a humble, conservative, Christian family man, and I look forward to his leadership as we advance our America-first agenda.

“Now, it’s time House Republicans bring some sanity to Washington and get back to work restoring the rule of law, securing our borders, protecting our communities, reining in spending, supporting Israel, strengthening our military, defeating inflation, and halting destructive Democrat policies. Let’s get back to the people’s business!”
