Summarised from 2 outlets · Updated 11 Oct, 20:48 · Archive

Speaker of the House Mike Johnson campaigned in Louisiana's 4th District on 10 October ahead of the midterm elections. A major focus of his speech was the 'big beautiful bill', and he also addressed the economy and gas price concerns.

Johnson said the administration had two major objectives: ensuring Iran does not have a nuclear weapon, which he stated had been the objective for 50 years, and keeping gas prices low for Americans. 'I think we can achieve both of those things very soon,' Johnson said.

Johnson expressed confidence that Republicans would maintain control of the House and Senate. He also said he believed Julia Letlow would easily win the Senate seat in Louisiana.
