According to Al Arabiya, leading Democrats in the US House of Representatives pledged on Wednesday to use their expected majority to fight corruption, after an election in which accusations of illicit enrichment against President Trump were a key issue for voters.
House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, who is expected to become Speaker in the new Congress, told supporters: "We will hold accountable those who have dragged this country to unprecedented levels of corruption."
He added: "When officials in high positions are busy enriching themselves, their families, friends, or donors, they are not focused on improving the lives of the American people."
