In a uncommon look on C-SPAN, House Speaker Mike Johnson heard from one army mother who begged him to deliver the House again to session to go a standalone invoice to supply army troops pay throughout the federal government shutdown.
The particular person was recognized on the decision as "Samantha" — a Republican from Fort Belvoir, Virginia, who mentioned she’s "very disappointed" with the Republican Party over the shutdown.
She mentioned her "kids could die" if her household experiences a lapse in pay on Oct. 15.
