House Democrats Plan a First 100-Days Agenda if They Sweep to Power in Midterm Elections
The agenda targets lower health costs, war powers votes and investigations of Trump, with Democrats aiming to move quickly if they win the House.
- House Democrats are preparing an ambitious 100-day agenda focused on lowering costs and conducting vast oversight of the Trump administration if they seize majority control in next month's elections.
- Months ago, House Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries launched five working groups tackling healthcare, housing, groceries, gas, utilities, and care-giving, emphasizing that the cost of living is "way too high" for working Americans.
- Democrats plan to vote quickly to reinstate expired Affordable Care Act tax credits, reverse Republican Medicaid cuts including new work requirements, and undo Trump's tariff regime as Congress works to claw back White House power.
- Jeffries tasked ranking Democrats on the House Oversight and Judiciary committees with preparing investigations into Trump, his family, and his administration as part of a sweeping anti-corruption agenda, with impeachment "neither on nor off the table."
- The undertaking tests House Democrats' ability to avoid divisions hobbling Republicans under Speaker Mike Johnson, who countered that Republicans will press on cutting taxes and spending to ensure a "strong America.
