Associated Press

WASHINGTON (AP) — Speaker Mike Johnson is laying out a five-point policy agenda should Republicans take the majority next year. It includes extending the tax cuts approved when Donald Trump was president, reducing the size of the federal workforce and giving parents more choice on where they can send their children to school.

He says “the survival of the American dream depends upon our victory.”
