Johnson aiming to have reconciliation ‘blueprint’ at GOP retreat next week

Speaker Mike Johnson said in a brief interview Thursday that he’s aiming to finalize plans for a “blueprint” for his party’s massive party-line reconciliation at the GOP retreat in Florida next week.

Johnson noted the House Budget Committee, which handles writing instructions on the bill, is set to meet the week following the retreat.

“So now’s the time for us to finalize the plans and have a blueprint for that. So that’s the objective,” Johnson said, adding that he wanted to present options to fund the government and avoid a debt default members at the retreat.

Asked if GOP leaders are still mulling a bigger government funding deal with Democrats that would include border security money, wildfire aid and a debt limit hike, he responded: “We’re looking at all options,” and that “we hadn’t made that decision yet.”
