Every member of the House Democratic caucus has signed on to a discharge petition in an effort to force a vote on a debt limit increase without spending cuts or House Speaker Kevin McCarthy's (R-CA) backing, party leaders announced on Wednesday.

The signatures of the last final holdouts, Reps. Jared Golden and Ed Case , puts the total number at 213, meaning Democratic leaders still need to find five Republicans if the petition is to be successful.“We just want to let you all know that we have the full Democratic caucus on the discharge petition, which is another sign of unity that we have,” said Rep. Katherine Clark , the Democratic whip, during a press conference on Wednesday.

“It’s now time for House Republicans to break with the extreme wave of their party and join House Democrats to put an end to the default crisis. We only need five House Republicans to do so,” Jeffries said.
