Anthony Verdugo, founder of the socially conservative advocacy group Christian Family Coalition of Florida, said in a statement provided to CP that he applauded Johnson's election.

“Speaker Johnson has done what no other speaker candidate could, which is to unite our party and get back to the people’s business of leading in these historic and perilous times,” Verudgo said.

“We pray that Speaker Johnson will lead clarity, boldness and vision as we set forth the course for our nation, we are heartened by the fact that he is a principled leader and follower of Jesus Christ for such a time as this.”
