Arizona Sues U.S. House to Seat Democrat Adelita Grijalva

Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes and Rep.-elect Adelita Grijalva sued the U.S. House to force the seating of Grijalva, who was elected in September, citing delays by House Speaker Mike Johnson, who has linked her seating to the government shutdown. The lawsuit alleges voter disenfranchisement and unequal treatment of newly elected members, with comparisons to the swift seating of Republican colleagues. The case highlights ongoing disputes over congressional seating and representation.
