reporter: speaker johnson yesterday did he speak to leader jeffries about the plan of his? has there been any communication? do you have any idea what he's doing? mr. aguilar: that's a question for the speaker and the leader. i know they had a conversation that he indicated that in the leadership meeting. we're still waiting on the substance, i said. that part matters. we've seen some of the readouts that speaker johnson has conveyed to his conference and like the vice chair said, there's some important pieces that need to be included. so once we have more clarity on that, we're willing to work to device a process that brings these bills to the floor and gets them, more importantly, to the president's desk. that's what the focus is right now. reporter: i hate to beat a dead horse. the reality is we're hearing the motion to vacate could come within the next 24-48 hours which means there could be a force a motion to table or we have to potentially deal with this before we talk about foreign aid? are you saying there's no conversations happening behind closed doors with democr
