93.9 The Eagle – The News and Talk of Columbia, MO
A west-central Missouri GOP congressman has high praise for new U.S. House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-Louisiana). Mr. Johnson became the 56th House Speaker on Wednesday. U.S. Rep. Mark Alford (R-Raymore) joined us live this morning on 939 the Eagle’s “Wake Up Mid-Missouri”, describing Speaker Johnson as quiet, reserved and thoughtful. Congressman Alford says there’s something different about this Speaker, which he appreciates. He also says Speaker Johnson is committed to visiting each GOP House member’s district that he hasn’t visited already. Congressman Alford looks forward to the Speaker visiting the sprawling fourth district, which includes Columbia, Centralia, Hallsville, Sedalia and Fort Leonard Wood:
