.RepJeffries criticized the 'very serious situation' that 'extreme Republicans' have put the House in. Lawmakers were excused on recess this week after a standoff between hard-line conservatives and GOP leadership stalled all legislation on the floor.

The House is not scheduled to return to Capitol Hill until Monday evening as McCarthy continues to meet with members of his own party, with several pushing to renegotiate terms that secured McCarthy the speakership in January, a source familiar with the conversations told the Washington Examiner. The delay has elicited criticism from Democratic leaders, who say McCarthy is at risk of being overrun by “extremists.

Much of the frustration stems from the debt ceiling deal between McCarthy and President Joe Biden, which several Republicans say was done in a way that violated agreements made in January during the speaker's election. It remains unclear what agreements McCarthy may have breached because none of the provisions mentioned were written down or included in the House rules.

“This week puts into clear focus the choices that the American people have in front of them in terms of which direction their government will go,” Jeffries said. “On the one side: Democrats. Team Reasonable, Team Normal, and Team Gets-Stuff-Done. On the other side: Republicans. Team Chaos, Team Dysfunction, and Team Extreme.”
