In the 2022 midterm elections, the Republican Party won control of the House 222–213, taking the majority for the first time since the 115th Congress, while the Democratic Party gained one seat in the Senate, where they already had effective control, and giving them a 51–49 seat majority (with a caucus of 48 Democrats and three independents). With Republicans winning the House, the 118th Congress ended the federal government trifecta Democrats held in the 117th.[1]
The 118th Congress has been characterized as a uniquely ineffectual Congress, with its most notable events pointing towards political dysfunction.[2] The intense gridlock, particularly in the Republican-controlled House where the Republican Conference's majority was often undercut by internal disputes amongst its members,[3] resulted in it passing the lowest number of laws for the first year of session since the Richard Nixon administration, and possibly ever.[4] The unproductive session eroded confidence for many seasoned legislators, with five committee chairs amongst the dozens declaring resignations before the end of the session, three of whom were eligible to reprise their positions if the Republican party retained their majority for 2025.[5]
Partisan disciplinary actions have also increased. With the expulsion of New York Representative George Santos from the House in December 2023 over the opposition of the Speaker, this was the first congress since the 107th in which a member was expelled, and the first ever in which a Republican was. There was also an increase of censures passed in the House,[10] being the first congress with multiple censures since the 1983 congressional page sex scandal and the most in one year since 1870. In December 2023, House Republicans authorized an impeachment inquiry into Joe Biden,[11] followed by the impeachment of Alejandro Mayorkas in February 2024, the first time a cabinet secretary has been the target of impeachment proceedings since William W. Belknap in 1876.[12][13]
February 2, 2023: House votes 218–211 to remove Representative Ilhan Omar of Minnesota from the Committee on Foreign Affairs for her comments about Israel and concerns over her objectivity.[16]
October 25, 2023: Mike Johnson is elected Speaker of the House of Representatives.[22]
November 8, 2023: House votes 234–188 to censure Representative Rashida Tlaib of Michigan for her comments condemning Israel in the midst of the Israel–Hamas war.[23]
December 1, 2023: Over the opposition of the Speaker, the House votes 311–114–2 to expel Representative George Santos of New York following a United States House Committee on Ethics report that unanimously found substantial evidence Santos violated federal criminal law.[24][25]
February 13, 2024: House votes again to impeach Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas, succeeding 214–213.[13]
February 28, 2024: Senator Mitch McConnell announces he will step down as Republican Senate Leader at the end of the 118th Congress, in January 2025.[29]
