House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) have agreed to a joint appearance on C-SPAN.
The network announced on Wednesday that both leaders had said they would appear together on C-SPAN's Ceasefire program. No formal date was set for the joint appearance.
While speaking to C-SPAN earlier this month, Johnson said he was willing to "sit down with Hakeem Jeffries, my counterpart."
Jeffries later accepted the challenge.
"I look forward to that," the Democratic leader said Tuesday, according to The Hill. "We’re going to try to get it scheduled, absolutely."
Johnson has previously refused to debate Jeffries.
"We don't need to waste time on that nonsense, those debates have been had," Johnson said following the government shutdown. "I respect him, but we all know what he's trying to do there."
