WASHINGTON—As the Trump administration prepares to enter office with his party controlling both the Senate and the House of Representatives, some Democrats are identifying areas where they seek to collaborate with the GOP during the upcoming 119th Congress.
Republicans will control both houses, but their majorities will be narrow—three seats in the House and Senate, respectively, with the latter being below the threshold required to invoke cloture and overcome a filibuster. Given these conditions, Democratic support may be necessary to attain the passage of several policy initiatives. At the No Labels National Conference on Dec. 12, Democratic members of Congress suggested where their support will be forthcoming.
