What is happening

What the sources report

Hakeem Jeffries celebrated the Democrats' electoral victory in the House of Representatives on Tuesday evening with the phrase "America is back".[1]

According to CNN's election team estimate, Democrats are expected to regain control of the House.[2]

Jeffries pledged to use his party’s majority in both chambers of Congress to hold accountable those responsible, in his words, for “unprecedented corruption”.[3]

He also pledged that Democrats will seek to reverse the Medicaid cuts included in the Republicans’ tax and budget law of last year.[1]

He will not be able to formally take up his new duties before 3 January, when the new Congress is sworn in.[2]

Where they differ

Newmoney.gr writes that Jeffries spoke to the crowd on Tuesday evening, while Newsbeast reports statements he made to supporters after the midterm elections, citing the Athens News Agency, AFP and Anadolu.[3][1]

Politis writes that Jeffries took over the Democratic leadership in the House in 2023, while Ethnos and HuffPost Greece write that he became Democratic leader in the House in 2022.[2][4][5]

Politis writes that the new speaker will be elected when the new Congress convenes in January 2027, while Ethnos reports that the formal assumption of duties is expected on 3 January.[4][5]
