House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) praised R&B legends Boyz II Men after the vocal harmony group visited the U.S. Capitol on Thursday, saying they “created a large part of the soundtrack of our lives.”
“I truly enjoyed hosting @BoyzIIMen during their visit to the Capitol today,” Speaker Johnson said in a Thursday X post, sharing a photo of himself with Boys II Men.

Agree 100%!

And Johnson must've gotten the line "soundtrack of our lives" from what LeAnn Rimes said in support of the bill:
“Performers spend hours, days, weeks, months, and even years working on the songs that make up the soundtracks of our lives. They should be rewarded for that work by the radio corporations that play their songs on the air,” said singer LeAnn Rimes.
