House Democrats expect their members to rescue House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) on a motion to vacate introduced by Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) on Friday.

Why it matters: Greene has said her attempt to formally remove Johnson would be triggered if he holds a House vote on Ukraine aid — something Democrats desperately want.

• "I think this is a great way to set up a deal on Ukraine aid," said one House Democrat, "but I think either way we'll protect him."
• A spokesperson for House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.) did not respond to a request for comment.
