Democrats won Congress. But can they deliver on their promises?
Al Jazeera examines how far Democrats can deliver after winning both chambers of Congress in the November 2026 midterms on pledges to cut living costs, end the war on Iran, investigate Donald Trump, and curb his immigration crackdown, though they take control only in January 2027.
