"The Rules Committee will also be posting text on a border security bill that includes the core components of H.R.2," Johnson said.
H.R.2 is a comprehensive border security bill passed by House Republicans last year, which includes measures like the Trump administration-era "Remain In Mexico" policy and would expand expulsion authorities for law enforcement at the U.S.-Mexico border. Democrats have panned H.R.2 as a nonstarter.
The border security bill would move through the House Rules Committee separately from his four foreign aid bills, but each is being teed up for a Saturday evening vote.
Johnson said lawmakers would be able to submit amendments for all five pieces of legislation as well.
