He has now erased fully 10% of the term to which Grijalva was elected.
Speaker Johnson is officially keeping the House in recess again next week. This will be the eighth consecutive week the House has been out of session. The chamber hasn't met since Sept. 19. Adelita Grijalva, who was elected on Sept. 23, has not been sworn in.

RAJU: You swore in 2 GOP members during pro forma session. Why not swear in Grijalva? Does it have to do w/her signature on Epstein petition?
JOHNSON: It has nothing to do with that. We'll swear her in when everybody is back
R: Why not now?
J: Uh - we'll schedule it, I guess, as soon as she wants

FOX: You said last week that you would swear in Grijalva whenever she wants. She has written a letter to your office. You have not sworn her in. Doesn't your resistance add fuel to the fire that this is about Epstein?
MIKE JOHNSON: No. This is another partisan manufactured thing

Happy Adelita Grijalva Swearing In Day to those who celebrate, i.e. everyone who believes in a system where people are represented in government.

Adelita Grijalva is set to be sworn in, teeing up a potential vote on Epstein files
The Arizona Democrat won her race in September, but Speaker Mike Johnson has waited to swear her in until today. Grijalva has vowed to be the decisive signature in a bid to release the Epstein files.

Grijalva: The frustration for me is that it seems as if Speaker Johnson is not willing to swear me in because our politics are a little different, or because I’m going to be the 218th signer—he can just continue to drag this along with no end in sight.
That is not a foundation of our democracy.

Adelita Grijalva, Democrat of Arizona, was sworn into office on Wednesday, weeks after she won a special election in September. Moments later, she provided the final signature needed on a petition to force a House vote on releasing the Trump administration’s investigative files on Jeffrey Epstein.

Enough is enough. Adelita Grijalva was elected on September 23. The people of Arizona have a right to be represented in Congress.
During today’s pro forma session, when the House is called to order I will seek unanimous consent to insist upon the swearing-in of Adelita Grijalva.

The government is in full shutdown and the Republicans are refusing to call the House back into session.
Want to know why?
Because we have secured the final vote on releasing the Epstein Files and they don’t want it out.
Call GOP and tell them to swear in @adelitaforcongress.bsky.social.

“I can’t see another reason,” Adelita Grijalva tells Rolling Stone.
“It doesn’t change the majority, Democrats are still in the minority. That seems to be the only outstanding issue that I can see."

To avoid swearing in a duly elected Democratic House member who will force a vote to release the Epstein files, the House is in recess indefinitely
