Congresswoman Cherfilus-McCormick's Statement on Republicans' Failed Leadership Vote
January 4, 2023
"Chaos. Confusion. Crisis. In the 117th Congress, House Democrats rallied in unity to pass landmark legislation to lower costs for working families, create better-paying jobs, protect school-aged children, and expand access to health care. In the first 24 hours of the 118th Congress, House Republicans failed to unite and elect a Speaker. The road ahead will be challenging, but Democrats stand ready to deliver For the People."
