WATCH LIVE: Johnson holds a press briefing

.

House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) and GOP House leadership will hold a press conference on Tuesday morning around 10 a.m.

The press briefing comes as the House moves closer to the Dec. 31 Obamacare premium subsidies cliff with no tangible bipartisan deal in sight.

HOUSE DRIVES TOWARD OBAMACARE CLIFF WITH NEITHER PARTY EAGER TO FIND BIPARTISAN GROUND ON SUBSIDIES

The House Rules Committee meets Tuesday at 2:00 p.m.

Johnson hopes to rally the GOP around his Lower Health Care Premiums for All Americans Act, which does not include an extension of the premium subsidies, as centrist Republicans’ hope for a two-year extension appears to be slipping through the cracks. Democrats and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) have likewise stood firm on a three-year extension.
