Briefings

Democrats regained control of both the Senate and House, enabling them to stymie President Trump's health care agenda and weaken Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s Make America Healthy Again movement. This shift occurred after Democrats flipped four governorships, allowing them to reshape policies including Medicaid cuts and vaccine skepticism. However, their progress is limited by Trump's veto power and the lack of 60 Senate seats needed to overcome a filibuster.
