Jeffries said Democrats can overcome a fundraising gap by flipping Trump-won districts, as the party adds eight seats to its target map.

  • Defending the Republican majority, House Speaker Mike Johnson is crisscrossing the country and scheduled to visit more than 40 districts across 20 states before November.

  • Republicans face pressure from high gas prices stemming from the war with Iran, while Trump campaigns in red states promising $5,000 dividends and $90 Medicare payments.
  • With the House narrowly split, only a few seats will determine which party controls the chamber in the final month before the November 3 midterm elections.
