Speaker Johnson's CR text faces criticism from GOP members

Rep. Eric Burlison (R-Mo.) on Tuesday criticized House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) for not producing text for the continuing resolution (CR) and proposing measures that would add to the national debt.

“I think that it's shameful that people that celebrate DOGE (Department of Government Efficiency) coming in, I can't, and yet we're gonna vote for another billion dollars to be added to the deficit, and so it's ironic. Personally, I'm disappointed,” Burlison told reporters.

“I think that he can do better. He can communicate better," Burlison said of Johnson. "The fact that we haven't seen the language today, and we're supposed to vote on it this week, is unacceptable.”
