The US deputies and senators elected in the last mid-term elections, the mid-term elections held in November, took office on Thursday and the new US Congress was inaugurated. This is a new chapter in US politics, the inauguration of the 116th Congress marking the pbadage of the House of Representatives to Democratic power, pitting Republican President Donald Trump.
After two years of majority rule in both houses, Trump will now have to negotiate with the Democrats, who have 235 seats in the House, against 199 Republicans. Previously, there were 235 Republicans and 193 Democrats.
Already in the Senate, Republicans have advanced and increased their majority from 51 to 53 out of 100 seats, along with the other 47 Democratic senators.
The new legislature brings some remarkable changes. There have never been so many women in the lower house of America, fewer minority parliamentarians and Hispanic parliamentarians. In addition, the new Congress marks the arrival of a new generation of politicians, more distant from the elites and having more diverse social and racial origins than in the previous legislature.

One of the examples is Democrat Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, of Puerto Rican origin and born in the Bronx. At age 29, she goes into history by becoming the youngest woman to be elected to Congress. Alexandria defines herself as a democratic socialist.
"Many people know that we are going to get their hands on the wolf's mouth," she told reporters in November. "Even at the party," he added.
In this wave of change, two Aboriginal peoples also entered the room: Sharice Davids and Deb Haaland, whose defense of the environment is one of their priorities.
The inauguration takes place in the middle of a serious arm fall that keeps the federal government in a closed situation, called "closure", since December 22. The clash comes from the fact that Trump is asking congressmen to include in next year's budget a $ 5 billion grant for the construction of a wall at the US border. with Mexico to contain illegal immigration.
The Democrats strongly oppose this initiative, which they say is not a solution to a complex problem such as immigration.
Following the inauguration of the new Congress, the House will elect Democrat Nancy Pelosi, 78, Speaker of the House. It takes a simple majority of 218 votes to be appointed, implying that the Democratic Party can only afford 17 dissidents.
Pelosi held this position between 2007 and 2011, the year she entered history, being the first woman to hold this position. And that made the life of President George W. Bush more difficult in the last years of his tenure.

With their new control of the House, Democrats will lead parliamentary committees with great powers, including the power to open inquiries, order witnesses and present documents.

The Democrats are also considering asking the Republican President to finally present his tax returns.
It is badumed that the Democratic dominance of the House increases the possibility of a process of dismissal of the president (or dismissal).
Nancy Pelosi dismissed this idea until now and said she wanted to wait for the findings of the investigations into the Russian ploy. But it is unclear whether newly elected parliamentarians in an anti-Trump camp and masquerading as "resistance" will have as much patience.
For now, any attempt to remove the 45th President of the United States is unlikely to advance. Although Democrats can vote to denounce them in the House, the Senate is responsible for trying the President and the votes of two-thirds of its members are necessary to dismiss the Head of State.
