After the tumultuous start, the 118th Congress is in session and the House Republicans say they're ready to start working on their agenda.

But because of the early drama and the intra-party fighting that occurred before finally naming Kevin McCarthy as Speaker of the House, there are concerns among conservatives that the GOP is too divided to get real action done and implement the change voters want.

On Wednesday, House Majority Whip Tom Emmer (R-MN) joined Jessica Rosenthal to discuss his expectations for the new GOP-led Congress and why he feels the new rules in place will help the country run more efficiently and more with more transparency.

Rep. Emmer explained why he is confident that Republicans will be able to unite as a party and achieve goals like cutting spending and passing significant legislation. He also weighed in on what needs to get done to pass the debt limit on time.

Due to time limitations, we could not include all of the conversations in our original segment. On the FOX News Rundown Extra, you will hear our entire interview with House Majority Whip Tom Emmer and hear why the House's new majority leadership believes they're bringing something better to Washington.
