WASHINGTON (AP) — Defying opposition within his ranks, House Speaker Mike Johnson insisted late Wednesday that Republicans would march ahead on theirafter a lengthy White House meeting with GOP holdouts refusing to back the bill.
Johnson and his GOP leadership team appeared confident they would be able to stick to their schedule and shore up GOP support for final passage late Wednesday or Thursday following last-ditch talks to salvage theBut next steps are highly uncertain.“We’re excited that we’re going to land this airplane,” Johnson, R-La., said back at the Capitol.

“I won’t sugar-coat it: it’s rough. But I’m hopeful. I’m being lovingly cared for by friends and family, my medical team is brilliant, and I’ve never felt more held by the people around me,” she added.Szubanski said that she had shaved her head before appearing in a video “in anticipation of it all falling out in a couple of weeks.” That was an apparent reference to undergoing chemotherapy.
