Jeffries Launches 100-Day Democratic Push on Affordability in Pennsylvania
Jeffries will pitch lower costs for groceries, gas and housing as Democrats target fewer than 20 toss-up House seats.
- On Sunday, House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries unveiled the 'Fighting for an Affordable America' agenda, launching a 100-day Democratic push before the midterm elections in Pennsylvania.
- In the Lehigh Valley, Jeffries and Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro rallied support for Bob Brooks, a retired firefighter challenging incumbent GOP Rep. Ryan Mackenzie for the 7th District seat.
- Jeffries said the goal is 'focused on lowering the cost of groceries and gas and housing,' positioning Democrats to reclaim House control by emphasizing kitchen table issues over other priorities.
- Republicans hold a cash advantage and are banking on the 'One Big Beautiful Bill Act' of tax breaks and spending cuts to buoy candidates across the 435 contested House seats.
- Midterms serve as a referendum on President Donald Trump's term, with House control likely decided by fewer than 20 toss-up districts amid voter disapproval of military action against Iran.
