Republicans are optimistic they will be able to pass legislation before losing a majority in the House.
With seconds ticking off the clock, Republicans have precious little time to get their agenda through the House before Democrats seize control of the chamber and all its investigatory power.
Some of the most influential Republicans in Congress say the party still plans to drive legislative items through the House and to President Donald Trump's desk, with a few key pieces of legislation at the forefront such as Ohio Republican Rep. Jim Jordan, who was challenging California Republican Rep. Kevin McCarthy for the position of minority leader, naming a list of items he wants to have passed.
American Conservative Union Chairman Matt Schlapp echoed a very similar message to TheDCNF, when asked if Republicans will suffer greatly after losing the majority of the House to the Democratic Party on Nov. 6.
House Committee on Ways and Means Chairman Kevin Brady told a group of reporters on Capitol Hill Tuesday that he is optimistic Republicans will pass some legislation before January, if Democrats do not obstruct moving forward.
Democratic Arizona Sen.-elect Kyrsten Sinema said she would be willing to work with Republicans on the border wall Wednesday afternoon, when asked by TheDCNF. Sinema, who faced a close election against Republican Rep. Martha McSally of Arizona, said she would work with Republicans on "Everything."
Dozens of other Democrats in Congress did not respond to TheDCNF when asked about their plans to work with Republicans on legislation.
