Do people in #WA03, #TX34, #TX28, #NJ05, #ME02, and #CA13 want federal spending to create jobs?

If so, they can ask their Blue Dog reps if they've read studies that education spending creates 3x more jobs than military spending. Healthcare more than 2x.

The conservative Democrats voted for a trillion-dollar defense budget for Trump's Department of War and defense spending in FY26, despite the Pentagon having never passed a financial audit.

House Democrats from states that Trump has threatened with National Guard presence voted for the GOP defense policy bill that further enmeshes the military domestically.

- Blue Dog whip Adam Gray of #CA13, in the San Joaquin Valley
- George Whitesides of #CA27, north of L.A.
- Laura Gillen of #NY04, in Long Island
- April Delaney of #MD06, an hour west of Baltimore

House GOP denied votes on all Democratic amendments to the NDAA, including on limiting troop usage.

#CA13 Adam Gray (D) @adamgrayca.bsky.social

If we win both these races the House will be 220R-215D,
and we will have picked up two seats net from the last Congress.

With three vacancies due to House members leaving to join (or attempting to join - Gaetz) the Trump cabinet,
House Rs will begin Congress next year at 217-215,

a one vote majority in what has been a very factious and fragile Republican “Majority.”

#CA45 #CA13

Great news that Adam Gray increased his lead tonight in #CA13 against the GOP incumbent!

Dem Adam Gray still has a chance to beat GOP Rep. John Duarte in #CA13. Help cure ballots and flip this seat.

Update 8am Fri Nov18 - Control of the US House.

Called races insure the GOP has majority of at least 218-217.

With called + lean races, the GOP has:

GOP 221-214

In the past 24 hours, 1 more race called, #CA47 (Porter) for D (does not change the expected outcome).

6 Races remain uncalled:

#CA03 #CA22 #CO03 (all lean GOP)
#AK01 #CA13 #CA34 (all lean Dem).

HOUSE STATE OF PLAY: #CA09 called for Dems; they'd now have to hold #CA13 & #CA17 + win all 4 of the seats the GOP now leads in to reach 218.

Extremely unlikely but still theoretically possible, I think.

HUGE UPDATE 11:15pm -US House of Representatives.

NYTimes calls 3 races: #CA41-R #CA45-R #NY22-R
and #CA13 FLIPPED #CA13 from "leans R" to "leans D"

Total count of calls + leaning seats:
GOP 221 - 214 Dem

To win, Dems must flip ALL 4 OF THE REMAINING "leans R" races:
