Congressional leaders are hitting the trail in the midterms’ final stretch. Next month, House Minority Whip Katherine Clark is planning a whirlwind tour of districts in California, Michigan, Ohio, New York, Florida, Massachusetts, Nebraska, and Pennsylvania, according to a spokesperson, a sprint that will bring her stops to 24 congressional districts since August and 48 events. Her travel plans — which at points include multiple districts in a single day — will incorporate all of the female frontline Democratic lawmakers and “red to blue” candidates looking to flip seats. She’ll focus on issues impacting families like affordability, healthcare, and childcare. Top Republicans are also making their final pitches to voters, with House Speaker Mike Johnson planning a 40-district tour, Axios reported. Democrats are confident they’ll be able to flip the House, though Republicans think their cash advantage will help them defy political headwinds.
