This week, House Republicans passed H.Res.519, a resolution condemning the attacks on Minnesota lawmakers in Brooklyn Park and Champlin, Minnesota. Every single Member of Congress voted to condemn these attacks. Following House passage, Speaker Johnson said, "All acts of political violence are unconscionable, and every leader across the political spectrum must speak with one unequivocal voice against it."

On Wednesday, the House approved the FY26 Military Construction and Veterans Affairs Appropriations Act, which fully funds veterans' health care and benefits. Unfortunately, 206 House Democrats voted against this commonsense bill. Speaker Johnson reiterated House Republicans' commitment to our men and women in uniform.

On Friday, House Republicans adopted H.Res. 516, which condemns the violent Los Angeles riots. Unfortunately, 195 Democrats chose to disregard the rule of law and embrace violence when it serves their political purposes. See Speaker Johnson's full statement below.
