Rep. Jake LaTurner, R-Kan., told Newsmax on Thursday that House Republicans will come together to "get the job done" and avoid a looming government shutdown.
"We've got to get this country back on track. It is worth having a fight over. But at the end of the day, I think Republicans are going to stick together and get the job done. We've been underestimated time and time again, and, at the end of the day, we've stuck together to do the right thing for the American people. This time, that will happen again."
McCarthy reportedly called on his fractured Republican majority to work together during a closed-door strategy meeting Wednesday. He also scheduled a test vote for Friday on a conservative-led bill that would cut federal spending by 8% from a number of federal agencies and strengthen border security."I want to solve the problem," McCarthy told reporters at the Capitol after the meeting.
"He wants money for Ukraine," LaTurner said. "The $4 billion that he talked about for the border isn't really for the border. It's handouts to countries in Central America. We need real border security because we have people on the terrorist watch list crossing our southern border. That's a fact.
