Officially.
Happy Dance.
Nancy, of course, wasted no time pretending House Democrats did a great job in the midterms … by losing the House. This may well be the biggest participation trophy, like ever.
Courage, optimism, and determination.This year, @HouseDemocrats defied expectations with an excellent performance: running their races with courage, optimism and determination.

OH, and not to mention ballot harvesting, mail-in ballots, and all of the other little tricks up their Democrat sleeves.
And still lost.
Democrats had a scant majority before the midterms.In the next Congress, @HouseDemocrats will continue to play a leading role supporting @POTUS’ agenda — with strong leverage over a scant Republican majority.

Just sayin’.
Diversity and patriotism. Right.House Democrats are thrilled to have so many terrific new and returning Members to the House, who will reinvigorate our Caucus with their energy, diversity and patriotism.

We salute our departing Members for their magnificent leadership, achieving landmark progress on health care, climate action, infrastructure, gun violence, veterans and more that can never be diminished.
