House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries says he expects Democratic support for debt ceiling deal

President Joe Biden and House Speaker Kevin McCarthy announced late Saturday that they had reached an agreement in principle to raise the debt ceiling. Democratic House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries tells “Face the Nation” that he expects his caucus to vote for the deal because it “protects” Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, veterans and the “American people.”
