Hakeem Jeffries unveiled a Democratic affordability agenda and joined Gov. Josh Shapiro at a rally for Bob Brooks, the party’s candidate in a key Pennsylvania House race. The events came 100 days before midterms that could determine control of the House.
Hakeem Jeffries introduced the Democrats’ “Fighting for an Affordable America” agenda and rallied with Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro in support of Bob Brooks, who is challenging Republican Rep. Ryan Mackenzie. Jeffries said Democrats would focus on healthcare cuts, the cost of living and ending the war in Iran. Shapiro called Pennsylvania a swing state and said it would play a central role in the effort to win the House.
Mackenzie was preparing his own 100-day-out event. The story describes Pennsylvania’s 7th District as a battleground and says control of the narrowly divided House could depend on a small number of competitive seats. It also notes that Republicans were counting on the One Big Beautiful Bill Act and that Democrats planned to emphasize the war in Iran and household costs.
