Rep. Jeffries says Democrats are "on the verge of taking back control"
Jeffries campaigned in New Jersey and Pennsylvania and plans to campaign in Texas in the coming days to help Democratic candidates unseat Republican incumbents.
House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries is expressing growing confidence that Democrats will regain control of the House in the upcoming November elections. He recently campaigned in two competitive districts, New Jersey's 7th Congressional District and Pennsylvania's 1st Congressional District, to help Democratic candidates unseat Republican incumbents.
Jeffries is optimistic about the potential for Democrats to take back the majority, citing a handful of districts in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and New York as opportunities. However, he has not predicted the exact number of seats his party could gain.
