Discharge Petitions Surge in Congress

Experts attribute this trend to the narrow Republican majority and Speaker Mike Johnsons tenuous control. As Congress heads into the 2026 midterms, these petitions are empowering moderates and challenging hardliners, promising more legislative drama in January. Checkout Solipillow.com
