17 Home Republicans—led by Rep. Andy Ogles (R-TN)—have issued a fiery letter demanding that Speaker Mike Johnson cease taking part in politics and begin delivering outcomes by codifying President Trump’s govt orders into regulation.
The letter obtained by Breitbart is a scathing indictment of Speaker Johnson’s lack of urgency.
It warns that President Trump’s transformative agenda, launched the second he returned to workplace on January 20, is in peril of being wiped away by a future Democrat president except Congress acts decisively.
“However let’s be clear: except Congress acts, many of those victories are in danger. A future Democrat president might erase them with the stroke of a pen. We can’t let that occur. If we wish this new period of American greatness to final, we should codify the President’s actions into regulation,” the letter warns bluntly.
President Trump has already performed the exhausting work by govt orders to rein in authorities waste, intestine the bureaucratic swamp, defeat leftist cultural madness, and restore the rule of regulation. However these victories stay fragile except locked into everlasting laws.
The lawmakers praised Trump’s efforts to revive fiscal sanity and shrink the bloated federal forms, however they slammed Johnson’s timid management for failing to capitalize on this historic alternative.
Whereas the 119th Congress handed a reconciliation bundle at “report tempo,” they argue, that very same power is lacking with regards to enshrining the Trump agenda.
“Home Republicans have already launched quite a few payments to enshrine the Trump agenda—from securing the border to reigning within the excesses of the executive state. We urge you to make this laws a prime precedence. If there’s something we will do to maneuver this ahead, we stand prepared,” the letter states.
The lawmakers reminded Johnson that “the American folks despatched us right here to ship lasting change—not short-term reduction. It’s Congress’s obligation to work hand in hand with President Trump to make sure the agenda the American folks elected this President and this Congress to enact turns into the regulation of the land. Now’s the time to behave.”
The letter was signed by outstanding America First voices, together with:
- Rep. Andy Ogles (R-TN)
- Rep. Keith Self (R-TX)
- Rep. Mark Harris (R-NC)
- Rep. Scott Perry (R-PA)
- Rep. Clay Higgins (R-LA)
- Rep. Barry Moore (R-AL)
- Rep. Mary Miller (R-IL)
- Rep. Eli Crane (R-AZ)
- Rep. Brandon Gill (R-TX)
- Rep. Ralph Norman (R-SC)
- Rep. Marlin Stutzman (R-IN)
- Rep. Eric Burlison (R-MO)
- Rep. Randy Weber (R-TX)

That is removed from the primary time conservatives have sounded the alarm over Speaker Johnson’s lackluster efficiency. Critics have slammed him for dragging his toes, chopping backroom offers with Democrats, and failing to wield the GOP majority with the energy and readability voters demanded.
In accordance with political commentator Amuse, the present GOP-controlled Congress sent fewer bills to President Trump to sign into law than any Congress in 70 years.
