House Democrats delay action on Haley Stevens after Rogers endorsement
What's next: Hakeem Jeffries said caucus leaders will decide on possible punishment after Tuesday's midterm elections.
House Democratic leaders are postponing any decision on Rep. Haley Stevens' standing in the caucus after the Michigan Democrat endorsed Republican Senate candidate Mike Rogers. The move triggered calls from some Democrats to remove Stevens from the House Democratic Caucus, but Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries said leaders will discuss next steps when lawmakers return after the election. Stevens, a four-term lawmaker, is leaving Congress at the end of the year after narrowly losing Michigan's Democratic Senate primary to Abdul El-Sayed. Tensions inside the party escalated after Stevens appeared with Rogers at a Detroit church and backed him two days before Election Day.
