House Democratic leaders are placing an early emphasis on healthcare as they discuss their immediate priorities upon the swearing in of a new Congress on Jan. 3. Early votes in the House next year are expected to focus on boosting Medicaid and restoring an enhanced tax subsidy for Affordable Care Act health plans. Democrats are also promising early votes on legislation to stop the war with Iran and to reverse some of President Donald Trump’s trade tariffs. Democratic leader Hakeem Jeffries is in line to become the next House speaker and he's promising Democrats will “get out of the gate fast.”
