House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) held a news conference following the House passing a short-term continuing resolution to fund parts of the federal government and avoid a shutdown. Leader Jeffries said all three of House Democrats' objectives were met: no spending cuts, “no extreme, right-wing policy changes,” and no government shutdown. The bill extends funding in two stages to January 19 and February 2, and he called for Congress to come together in a bipartisan fashion to fully fund the government. Moreover, Rep. Jeffries said House Republicans' “civil war” hit a new low yesterday, with reports of alleged physical violence between former House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) and Rep. Tim Burchett (R-TN). He also declined to comment on Rep. George Santos' (R-NY) possible expulsion amid an upcoming House Ethics report, but said Rep. Santos was “unfit” to serve as a representative and was a “serial fraudster.” close
