Lower house of the United States Congress

The US House of Representatives has passed a measure to halt US President Donald Trump from taking further military action in Iran with a 215-208 vote. The vote resulted from four Republicans joining the Democrats. The action must still pass through the majorly Republican senate. Washington Bureau Chief for The Guardian David Smith said the Iran war has gone badly for the President, and there are indications he is tired of it. "In many ways, several times in recent weeks he's claimed we're close to a deal, and that never seems to materialise," Smith said.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
The US Supreme Court ruled that states can no longer use race to draw congressional districts. 20-30 house seats are represented by districts drawn to represent minorities. The court ruled this violated the Equal Protection Clause and the civil rights of the majority of voters. Democrats have benefited for decades with these congressional districts. This is a massive change in political power that will likely benefit the Republicans for decades. The Virginia Supreme Court stopped the new district map that would have likely changed Virginia's house representation from 6 democrats and 5 republicans to 10 democrats and 1 republican. Virginia is a purple state. They had a very popular republican governor a few months ago. Kamala Harris won Virginia by about 5% in 2024. The ballot initiative barely passed. 51% of voters would have disenfranchised 49% of voters. Florida recently passed a redistrict effort that will likely increase republican representation by about 4 seats. Florida's redistricting would have off-set Virginia. Millions have moved to Florida since the last Census. Florida had a reason to redistrict other than purely political power, unlike Virginia. Both parties gerrymander. The democrats have been far more aggressive for decades. The 6 New England states average 42% republican voters. Due to gerrymandering, New England has zero Republican House representatives. New England Republicans have no representation in the US House of Representatives. LINK: Annuities Improve Outcomes Paper - JP Morgan

Early voting is almost over, and many of you may still be weighing your options. To help, we recorded a full Democratic candidate forum for North Carolina's U.S. House District 13 so you can cut through the noise, hear real answers, and decide with confidence. This famously gerrymandered district stretches from Caswell and Person to Johnston, Lee, and southeast Wake—we also explain how to confirm your district and find your sample ballot using the State Board of Elections voter search.Two candidates took the stage: Paul Barringer and Frank Pierce. Paul draws on decades in health law and public policy, arguing Congress must reclaim its Article I role, strengthen constituent services, and protect ACA subsidies while rolling back new Medicaid barriers. Frank argues off-year wins come from doors, data, and early engagement, pointing to turnout gains, year-round organizing, and coalition building across Black voters, HBCUs, and Democratic caucuses.You'll hear contrasts—and overlap—on abortion rights, rural health access, paying for care, Ukraine, Taiwan, NATO, tariffs, and redistricting strategy.If District 13 is on your ballot and you're a Democrat or unaffiliated voter, this forum delivers substance flyers can't. Listen, compare, and choose. If this helped, subscribe, leave a quick review, and share it with one person who still needs to hear it. Your vote—and your voice—can move this district.

Travis Groo, a North Carolina Candidate for US HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES DISTRICT 11, is running to help unleash a free, peaceful, and prosperous North Carolina where every individual has the opportunity to pursue their unique vision of a rewarding and enriching life.

In this episode of Passing Judgment, Jessica is joined by David Goodman of the New York Times to break down the unexpected surge of mid-cycle redistricting in Texas. They discuss how political maneuvering by Republicans—aimed at flipping congressional seats—has triggered national reverberations, with states like California now considering similar actions to counter Texas. The episode dives into the partisan motivations, the legal and political pushback, and the threat to independent redistricting commissions. Together, Jessica and David make sense of the fast-evolving redistricting landscape and its far-reaching impact on representation and the future balance of power in Congress.Here are three key takeaways you don't want to miss:Mid-Cycle Redistricting—Why Now? The episode opens with an exploration of why an unusual mid-cycle redistricting is being discussed in 2025, even though redistricting typically happens every ten years after the census. The trigger for this push is political: Republicans, facing a narrow margin in the U.S. House, sought ways to gain additional seats, focusing first on Texas where state Republican control made this feasible.The Politics and Justification of Gerrymandering Both Jessica and David highlight that Texas Republicans were fully open about the political motives behind redrawing district lines—to flip as many as five Democratic seats to Republican. They justified this by pointing out gerrymandering in Democratic-led states and emphasizing partisan advantage as allowed by the Supreme Court, which has found political gerrymandering to be outside federal judicial review.The Domino Effect—Other States Respond Texas's actions triggered similar conversations in other states. However, David points out that most opportunities for follow-on aggressive redistricting are found in Republican-led states because many Democratic-led states (like California and New York) have independent redistricting commissions, which limit the legislature's ability to redraw maps for partisan gain. States specifically considered for similar moves include Indiana, Missouri, and Florida, while California emerged as the prime Democratic candidate, though with significant procedural hurdles.Follow Our Host: @LevinsonJessica

Republicans have officially taken the White House and the US Senate. Will they take the US House of Representatives also? Jim Curry, Professor of Political Science at the University of Utah, talks with Dave and Debbie about the 19 uncalled races for control of congress.
Whatever the outcome, this year's general election will be both historic and consequential. Majorities in both the House and Senate hang on razor thin margins that could reverse this November. And with the race for the White House a statistical toss up, our nation could be welcoming either a glass ceiling shattering Democrat or the return of an executive who remade the Presidency as much as he has remade the Republican Party.rnrnWhether Trump or Harris is victorious, Congress will have to find a way to work with the administration and across party lines to do the work of the American people. Among those doing that work for Northeast Ohio are Congressional Representatives Shontel Brown (D-11) and Max Miller (R-7).
Congressman John Rose of Tennessee's sixth congressional district won re-election on Tuesday night. Rose says he's ready to work with President Elect Donald Trump & a Republican controlled Senate to enact policy that will help farmers in a tough Ag economy. One of the ways he hopes to do that is by passing a Farm Bill. Rose says the fate of a new Farm Bill is uncertain post election in the lame duck session as the balance of power in the US House Of Representatives is still uncertain.

Former President Donald Trump is visiting Capitol Hill today, where he is set to meet with members of both chambers. Yes, there'll be chatter about a 2025 agenda and an attempt to rally Republican support for his campaign. But behind the scenes, there's tension as the GOP's slim House majority is making it hard for Speaker Mike Johnson to deliver for Trump — whether the issue is impeaching Joe Biden, defunding Jack Smith or kneecapping prosecutors investigating the former president. Congress reporter Anthony Adragna joins Playbook co-author Rachael Bade to discuss all that and more. All of that, and the rest of the news you need to know today.
Truth Be Told with Booker Scott – How did Senator John Fetterman become the most sane member of the US Congress? It's happened as he compared the Marjorie Taylor Greene and AOC scuffle last week to being worse than the Jerry Springer Show. And he's right. Our representatives have sunk to lower levels than imaginable. The discussion takes us from the House mallet and the Trump vs. Biden debate to the hush money trial...
Prior to last week's congressional recess, Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene appeared poised for battle to vacate Speaker Mike Johnson from his post. But over the weeklong break, she didn't offer any updates on the mission. It has now been 38 days since Greene first filed that motion, and she has gone completely quiet on her plans. What's going on? Playbook co-author Rachael Bade walks through some possibilities. All that, and the rest of the news you need to know today.
Donate (no account necessary) | Subscribe (account required) In this Executive Brief on The Wright Report, Bryan Dean Wright, a former CIA Operations Officer, delves into the complexities and implications of the recently passed REPO Act. Embedded within broader bills to fund foreign wars, notably in Ukraine, this legislation authorizes the U.S. President to seize Russian governmental assets totaling about $300 billion from U.S. and European banks, reallocating them to support the war effort in Ukraine. Wright raises critical questions about the wisdom of such financial interventions, exploring the potential repercussions for the international trust in the U.S. financial system. The discussion outlines the crucial role of the U.S. dollar as both a transaction and a reserve currency, explaining how its stability has underpinned global economic security since World War II. Through a thought experiment involving hypothetical transactions between Guyana and Uruguay, Wright illustrates the fundamental dynamics of international trade and the pivotal role of the U.S. dollar. He expresses concern that the actions under the REPO Act could erode global confidence in the dollar, potentially leading to financial instability and diminishing the economic advantages currently enjoyed by the U.S. Wright warns that while the measures are intended to punish Russia, they could inadvertently accelerate efforts by BRIC nations to develop alternatives to the dollar-centric financial system, challenging U.S. economic dominance. He concludes with a call for fiscal responsibility and strategic financial management to preserve the dollar's status and ensure continued stability in the global financial landscape. This episode is a must-listen for anyone interested in understanding the broader implications of current U.S. foreign and financial policies on the global stage.
Is Mike Johnson's time as speaker limited? After weeks of delay, Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene's motion to vacate — a procedural move that would oust him from the House's top spot — seems to be coming to a head, just at Johnson's moment of maximum vulnerability. And this time, House Democrats won't be able to save him. Congress reporter Anthony Adragna joins Playbook co-author Rachael Bade to break it all down.

Truth Be Told with Booker Scott – Shortly after being sworn into the West Virginia House of Delegates, he went to DC, in support of Trump on January 6, 2021. And like many others, Evans entered the U.S. Capitol building. He became one of the first arrested on January 8, 2021. He resigned his seat in WV and began his court battles, which resulted in guilty pleas, leaving him labeled as an ‘insurrectionist' and convicted felon...

At this hour, virtually no one knows exactly what is or isn't in the hotly anticipated bipartisan Senate border bill — legislative text could drop as soon as tonight. But it's already dominating conversation in Washington and on the campaign trail. Former President Trump is eager to kill the deal and keep the border alive as a galvanizing election issue — and so far, House Republicans seem to be falling in line. But could the arrival of the actual proposal swing momentum in the other direction? Playbook co-author Ryan Lizza sits down with editor Mike DeBonis to walk through the possible paths forward.
With Senate negotiators expected to unveil a bipartisan border deal any day now, the chatter on Capitol Hill has turned to one elephantine obstacle: How to get this thing past the GOP-led House. The answer may just be… Democratic votes. And that could be a problem for Speaker Mike Johnson, especially as Donald Trump and the party's right flank aren't eager to support a border compromise — potentially dooming Johnson's speakership. But now, a new scenario is gaining steam: If that happens, might Democrats actually help keep the gavel in the Louisianan's hands? Playbook co-author Rachael Bade walks through the possibilities.
Over the three week-long holiday break, House Speaker Mike Johnson and Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer appear to have reached an agreement on top line spending numbers. Plus, Senate negotiators say they've made progress on discussions about the U.S.-Mexico border.
