Republicans narrowly capture House after Democrats held Senate
"Republicans will flip control of the U.S. House after four years out of power in the chamber, winning a narrow majority as Democrats will keep control of the Senate.
Driving the news: Republican wins in California and New York helped the party clinch the 218 seats needed for a House majority, the AP reported Wednesday.
Why it matters: The newly divided Congress gives lawmakers in the narrow House GOP majority leeway to block legislation and launch a battery of investigations, including some targeting President Biden.
House Republicans will also control a key lever in the process for crafting the federal budget and hold crucial leverage in spending fights with the Biden administration."
