YOUTUBE (The Hill) - Watch live: Jeffries speaks after 2 Democrats buck party on GOP rule vote
House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.) will speak on Thursday morning after two Democrats broke with the party to help Republicans advance a series of GOP-backed measures. This rare defection now puts Jeffries between a rock and a hard place as he is already navigating the split between the establishment and more progressive Democrats ahead of the midterms, and as the party looks to cede control of the House in November. Reps. Jared Golden (D-Maine) and Marie Gluesenkamp Perez (D-Wash.) joined Republicans in supporting a procedural rule Tuesday. Their votes have prompted party leaders to consider changes to caucus rules and other potential consequences. #hakeemjeffries #democrats #house
