40:06Now PlayingHouse Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) and Republican leaders will brief reporters Wednesday morning as they dive into their 2026 legislative agenda following the holiday recess.
The press conference comes as lawmakers prepare for another briefing on the Venezuelan military operation over the weekend, which resulted in the arrest and ouster of the South American nation‘s embattled leader Nicolas Máduro. President Trump in the days since has suggested the U.S. will temporarily take over Venezuela‘s government and oil infrastructure.
A vote on reestablishing the expired ObamaCare tax credits after a Democratic-led discharge petition advanced late last year and a looming government shutdown deadline are also on the horizon this year.
The event is scheduled to begin at 10 a.m. EST.
