The United States House of Representatives has adjourned for a second day without a speaker, as Republican leader Kevin McCarthy continued to fall short of the majority he needs to preside over the chamber. In the sixth round of voting on Wednesday, far-right opposition to McCarthy persisted, setting up the prospect of a prolonged crisis in Congress as the House remains practically paralysed without a speaker. McCarthy needed 218 votes to claim the gavel. But in three ballots on Wednesday, he only received 201, with 20 far-right Republicans backing Congressman Byron Donalds and one voting “present” as a sign of protest. Democrats remained united behind their nominee, Hakeem Jeffries, who […]
A lack of affordable housing is contributing to an increasingly visible homeless crisis in the United States, prompting cities like New York and Los Angeles to declare emergencies. The Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation known as Freddie Mac estimates the country needs an additional 3.8 million housing units. Homeless shelters overflow in many places and that means those with criminal records and mental health issues are more likely to end up on the streets.

President Vladimir Putin is open to talks on a possible settlement in Ukraine but Washington’s refusal to recognise “annexed” territories as Russian hinders the chances of compromise, the Kremlin says. US President Joe Biden has said he is prepared to speak to Putin if the Kremlin chief was looking for a way to end the war but Putin had not yet indicated that.

President Joe Biden’s Democratic Party will hang on to control of the United States Senate after a midterm election victory in Nevada. Catherine Cortez Masto defeated her Republican opponent Adam Laxalt, who was endorsed by former President Donald Trump. Al Jazeera’s @Mike Hanna has more from Washington, DC. – Subscribe to our channel: http://aje.io/AJSubscribe – Follow us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/AJEnglish – Find us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/aljazeera – Check our website: https://www.aljazeera.com/ @AljazeeraEnglish #Aljazeeraenglish #News #unitedstates #US #uselections #usmidterms #CortezMasto
Democratic Senator Catherine Cortez Masto has won re-election in Nevada, giving her party the 50 seats they need to keep control of the United States Senate. Democrats’ hold on the Senate is a blow to Republicans’ high hopes of wresting away control of Congress in a midterm election that typically favours the party out of power. It was still unclear which party would control the House of Representatives as counting continued in razor-tight races in California and a smattering of other states. – Subscribe to our channel: http://aje.io/AJSubscribe – Follow us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/AJEnglish – Find us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/aljazeera – Check our website: https://www.aljazeera.com/ @AljazeeraEnglish #Aljazeeraenglish #News #unitedstates #US […]
