As 119th Congress Convenes, Speaker Johnson Narrowly Re-elected Amid GOP Drama | EWTN News Nightly

About this sermon

The 119th Congress is officially in session, but it wasn't without drama. As expected, US House Republicans narrowly re-elected Speaker Mike Johnson. And taking a closer look at the numbers of the 119th Congress, there are 63 new House members, 12 new Senators, 124 Catholics in the House, more Democrats than Republicans with 26 in the Senate and a total of 150. In the Senate there is a lot less drama as the new Majority Leader, Senator John Thune moved into his new office and then gave his first floor speech as leader.
