"Conservative Pressure Mounts on Johnson Over Spending Deal"

House Speaker Mike Johnson is facing pressure from House Republicans, particularly ultraconservatives, to abandon the spending deal he made with Democrats to avert a government shutdown. The hard-liners are demanding deeper spending cuts and a severe crackdown on immigration, threatening to disrupt the House if their demands are not met. Johnson has not committed to walking away from the bipartisan agreement but is discussing the demands with his colleagues.
