"Jeffries replied, adding: And at the same period of time, Republicans have no interestzero interestin trying to address the healthcare crisis that they visited upon the American people, even though you've got Republicans now, most prominently Marjorie Taylor Greene, who's making clear this is not a made-up crisis.

Hakeem Jeffries has not met with Marjorie Taylor Greene and will not meet with Speaker Mike Johnson. Marjorie Taylor Greene has broken with many Republicans on issues including the Epstein files, healthcare subsidies and costs, Israel, and deportation of undocumented workers. Republicans remain on vacation and are avoiding returning to Congress in part to prevent swearing in Representative-elect Adelita Grijalva, which would provide the 218th signature needed for an up-or-down vote to release the Epstein files. Republicans show no interest in addressing the healthcare crisis, even as some Republicans acknowledge the crisis is real.
