Johnson emphasized the importance of focusing on the work at hand and moving beyond personal vendettas. He stated, "We've got a lot of work to do in the next few weeks, and it's way past time to move beyond the petty complaints and personal vendettas of a few of our members, and get back to doing the job the American people sent us here to do."

Johnson highlighted several key issues that need attention, including government funding, government spending, inflation, border security, and oversight of the Biden administration.
