President Donald Trump vowed during a Joint Address to Congress on March 4, 2025, to keep up his campaign of “swift and unrelenting action” in reorienting the nation’s economy, immigration and foreign policy in an unyielding address to Congress and the nation that left Democratic legislators to register their dissent with stone faces, placards calling out “lies,” and one legislator’s ejection. - Associated Press

In an interview with The 21st Show, Rep. Raja Krishnamoorthi (D-IL) said Democratic members of congress need to: "shine a light on what's going on and the worst of what's going on." He also said the need to pursue litigation, use votes as leverage, and "hold those who are excelerating this chaos... accountable."
