US Politics Daily@uspoliticsdailyDemocrats have taken control of both chambers of Congress, and their first goals include ending the Iran war and stopping Trump's tariffs. Leaders from both parties tied voter anger over those policies to higher gas, diesel, and grocery prices.
Democrats lack the numbers to override a veto, so they may lean on the power of the purse instead. A Dec. 11 funding deadline could soon test how far they will go, and some on the party's left are already asking whether leaders would accept a funding lapse to end the war.
