## Key points

- Jeffries plans a rapid legislative push in Democrats’ first 100 hours.
- Proposals include health care changes, ending tariffs and the Iran war.
- Senate rules and disagreements within the party could shape the agenda.

## Summary

Hakeem Jeffries is planning a rapid House legislative push for the first 100 hours after Democrats return to power, aiming to show voters early progress on affordability and other campaign issues. The proposals include restoring expanded Affordable Care Act subsidies, reversing major Medicaid cuts, ending tariffs and pressing for an end to the war in Iran.

Democrats plan to bring some measures directly to the House floor before committees are fully established, though bills would still face the Senate’s 60-vote filibuster. The party’s agenda may also be contested internally: Bernie Sanders and other progressives are urging expanded Medicare benefits and strict limits on AI development, while President Trump has said he may veto some measures but is open to deals.
