House Minority Leader Jeffries defends Democrats' healthcare push amid shutdown

NPR's Scott Detrow talks with House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries on his Democratic Party's strategy to resolve the government shutdown.

Corrected: October 2, 2025 at 5:11 PM MDT
A previous headline for this interview mistakenly identified Hakeem Jeffries as the Senate Minority Leader. He is the House Minority Leader.  
Scott Detrow is a White House correspondent for NPR and co-hosts the NPR Politics Podcast.
