## Transcript

First, I want to thank my house Republican colleagues for just designated me as the speaker. Obviously we still have work to do. We're going to have to go upstairs on the house floor and resolve this and then get the house opened. Again, we have a lot of work to do. Not just in the house for the people of this country. But we see how dangerous of a world it is and how things can change. So quickly. We need to make sure we're sending a message to people all throughout the world that the house is open and doing the people's business. Making sure that were unequivocally standing in our first resolution that we pass under speaker, Steve scalise will be to make it clear that we stand with Israel, call.

Meeks resolution will be our first order of business. The Senate has to start doing their work and by the way in that legislation including the state for Knoxville, the defense Appropriations Bill includes funding for Israel, things like Iron Dome precision-guided missiles, things that could be used today, to help them in this war, So there is a lot to do. I say we unify the party. Get the speaker. Doesn't even liked it as a special Speaker of the House of Steve scalise That's going to after you worked out in the next several hours to get to Unity consensus. We can't afford this dysfunction, the nation can afford.

This American people can't afford it. We need to speaker in the chair. Were dangerous times. Right now, we're in three, major, Global conflicts potentially, and we cannot afford to not have a speaker in the chair. And the first bill, the speaker told me will be my resolution condemning a moss and praising in support of Israel /. I sure hope so, but with squeeze one out right, elbow sleeves, it's time to have a speaker. Behind the police today. At 3 to buy the boat could be a mess. When he gets home, we have proven people that are not loyal. Yeah, there is an absolute to see the person that ever happened last week, what happened in place, so we can help them and what we should be looking behind right now.

It does not make sense. He had 96% of the support the guy that can hold you as house. So i g o. P w, we lost the White House. My son of season, 17 of the braces for state legislatures, but we won in the house and it was really because of Kevin McCarthy
