Hakeem Jeffries: “Life has gotten far too expensive in this country, and Republicans don’t give a damn about it.”

We must root out corrupt price gouging, clean up the mess at the Supreme Court and ban Members of Congress from trading stocks.

I write to humbly request your support in connection with my candidacy to serve as the next Speaker of the House of Representatives.

House Democrats are going to lead a Congress that does serve as a check and balance on an out-of-control executive branch.

Finally, we must restore classic American values like liberty and justice for all, equal protection under the law, the unfettered right to vote in a representative democracy and our heritage as a nation of immigrants.
