Hakeem Jeffries actually said...

"the statement about getting the economy working again I think perhaps is inaccurate as a snapshot of what actually has occurred over the last 8 years"

"Barack Obama was able to lead an economic turnaround without an ounce of cooperation from the other side"

"I think that the economy has been working ever since the turnaround that we engineered by the previous President 8 years ago."

"It is a dereliction of duty, it is the only reason why we are here today, and it is a waste of the time and the treasure of the American people."
