House Democrats are hoping to accomplish in the next two weeks what would usually take an entire Congress to achieve
Then there’s Pelosi’s attempt to reach an agreement on USMCA — Trump’s renegotiated trade deal with Canada and Mexico — that some farm-state Democrats have been vocally demanding by year’s end.
“She wants to not have impeachment and then walk out of the door. She wants something before and after,” one Democratic lawmaker said, on plans to stack votes on other policy issues the same week as impeachment. “A big impeachment sandwich.” The legislative logjam has swing-district freshman, in particular, worried that Democrats have overextended themselves in the final three weeks of the year. They fear that key parts of their campaign promises could go unfilled before they leave Washington for the holidays. Some first-term lawmakers have even privately suggested coming in during weekends to finish the workload, though the idea was quickly panned by more senior members of the caucus.
