WASHINGTON Former House Leader Steney Hoyer (D-MD) warned this week that Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) could be slow-walking Congress into an era where he refuses to swear in more members of the Democratic caucus. Speaking to Raw Story on Thursday about Johnson’s refusal to swear in Rep.-elect Adelita Grijalva (D-AZ), Hoyer said that if Johnson hadn’t already sworn in two Republicans, he might have a valid argument. “It is a dictatorship,” said Hoyer. “You cannot do that. The people of Arizona elected her by a very substantial vote. And he won’t swear her in! This business of not swearing in a member of Congress. What if he decided in the next Congress, he’s an elected Speaker, and then he decides not to swear in 25% of our people?” Raw Story also spoke with Sens. Rick Scott (R-FL), Lindsey Graham (R-SC), and Jim Banks (R-IN), all of whom dismissed the issue as either unimportant or claimed they don’t know who she is. “Nope,” Graham said simply when asked if he’d heard about Grijalva. “Who?” asked Scott when Raw Story mentioned her name. “They’re not in session.” Raw Story mentioned the two lawmakers from Florida who were also sworn in during a pro-forma session, which is how Grijalva would be sworn in if Johnson chose to. “I don’t know. I can’t imagine there’s any politics involved,” said Scott. Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) added her name to the list of furious Democrats. “The people of her district are being denied representation,” Warren said, harkening back to the rallying cry from American colonists protesting British taxes. “The speaker of the House is too frightened to swear her in. That’s not how democracy works. There was an election. The election has been certified. She needs to be sworn in. Sen. Mark Kelly (D-AZ) has been one of the outspoken voices from the Arizona delegation demanding that Grijalva be seated. He and Sen. Ruben Gallego (D-AZ) confronted Johnson in the Capitol last week, demanding answers. Kelly recalled that Johnson had previously said he would swear in the winner of the race as soon as they wished. Now, however, he’s changed his story. He also agreed it was related to the discharge petition that would be approved if Grijalva were sworn in. A discharge petition would mandate a vote on a measure that would require the Justice Department to release the investigation files of sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. As it stands, the petition requires one additional vote to bring the legislation to the House floor for a vote. “He should embrace the term rip off the bandaid,” quipped Kelly, noting that Johnson will eventually be forced to swear Grijalva into her seat and that the discharge petition is coming even if he wants to stop it. “Just get it done and over with. But there are a lot of women out there who deserve for there to be some accountability,” said Kelly.

Roaming charges no more: Nomad’s eSIM keeps you connected, wherever you are
Paul Jones / Android Authority
It wasn’t that long ago that the horror of a bloated phone bill when traveling abroad meant the first thing we did was disable data roaming—and to be extra safe, put our phones in airplane mode. Hotel Wi-Fi isn’t always reliable, and local SIM cards may be difficult to find or incompatible with your phone.
Travel-friendly eSIMs have made these concerns a thing of the past. You no longer have to scramble to get a local SIM card. Instead, you can guarantee data connectivity even before you get on the plane.
With seamless connectivity, easy setup, and affordable data plans, Nomad eSIM is one of the best in the business—and now you can save 30% on Nomad eSIM plans with code NOM30 until 30 October 2025. Here’s what you need to know!
Why Choose Nomad eSIM?
Nomad
There are plenty of reasons why choosing Nomad eSIM is the best way to make your travels easier. But the biggest is, of course, reliability. Nomad eSIM partners with top-tier global telcos to ensure you’ll never run into connectivity problems when traveling in an unknown place.
Nomad’s eSIM services offer a great balance between reliability and price, so you aren’t spending hundreds of dollars to stay online. And you don’t have to worry about hidden fees, surcharges, or contracts. Just sign up for the plan you need, when you need it, and you’re all set.
Whether you’re on a quick trip or an extended stay, Nomad eSIM has an option for everyone. With access in more than 200 countries and the option to choose from individual locations to regional and global bundles, you’ll find exactly what you need without issue.

Finally, it makes accessing and setting up your eSIM a breeze. eSIMs can seem complicated if you aren’t particularly tech-savvy or are new to the process, but Nomad eSIM provides clear, easy-to-follow instructions that help you activate your eSIM in just a few minutes. This ensures a seamless experience from installation to deactivation.
And if you do run into any trouble, Nomad eSIM’s dedicated customer service team is ready to help.
Data Plan Options: Single-Country, Regional, and Global Bundles
Single-Country Data Plans
Nomad
Many competitors tend to offer only regional and global bundles. But if you’re traveling to only one place, why pay extra for coverage in countries you have no plans to visit?
This is where Nomad eSIM’s excellent single-country data plans come in. These plans start from as low as $1.10/GB, with data options ranging from 1GB to 50GB—and even unlimited data in some locations.
Durations vary too, from short-term plans lasting 3 to 10 days, monthly plans, up to long-term plans that last 3 months. Essentially, there’s something to suit your individual travel needs.
Nomad eSIM offers single-country data plans for more than 200 countries, providing affordable and reliable data connectivity during your trip. Plus, because the plan covers only one country, it’s often much cheaper than purchasing a regional bundle.
Regional and Global Plans
Nomad
If you need coverage for multiple destinations—whether across an entire region, worldwide, or smaller multi-country groups—you don’t have to pay separately for every location you visit.
Since travel often spans multiple destinations, Nomad eSIM offers bundled plans that streamline your connectivity needs and reduce the associated costs. You won’t need to worry about switching eSIMs at each stop, making these bundles ideal for multi-city trips, regional exploration, and extended travel.
Nomad eSIM offers a variety of customized bundles to keep prices low. For example, there’s a Europe bundle covering 36 countries. You can also choose region-specific options such as the Balkans bundle for 13 countries, or smaller multi-country groups including just Italy, France, and Germany.
You’ll find similar options for North America, Central America, South America, the Caribbean, Africa, Asia, and more.
For world travelers, Nomad eSIM offers two global plans: the GLOBAL bundle, which covers up to 112 countries, and the GLOBAL-EX plan, providing data coverage in up to 82 locations. The latter is particularly handy for digital nomads, with term lengths ranging from 30 days up to a year.
Share Data Plans with Family and Friends
Nomad
Unless you’re traveling alone, making sure your friends or family have easy access to data is essential.
While this normally means each individual would sign up for their own data plan, that’s not the case with Nomad eSIM. You can easily share your data through a mobile hotspot with others in your group, allowing you to manage a single plan with shared data hassle-free.
If you prefer individual plans, Nomad eSIM’s convenient checkout lets you add multiple eSIM plans to the cart at once. This means you won’t have to worry about everyone shopping for an eSIM individually—streamlining the purchasing process, saving time, and making group travel planning easier.
Start Your Fall and Winter Travels on the Right Foot with Nomad eSIM
Paul Jones / Android Authority
Whether you’re planning a big move, a quick vacation, or an extended trip around an entire continent, you already have a hundred things to worry about. Staying connected online shouldn’t be one of them.
With multiple options ranging from single-country plans to a wide array of customized regional and global bundles, Nomad eSIM has something to fit everyone’s specific travel needs.
Thanks to low prices and reliable service wherever you go, Nomad eSIM is the go-to travel eSIM option.
For the next two weeks, you can enjoy up to 30% off all single-country, regional, and global plans from Nomad eSIM by applying the code NOM30 at checkout. This discount, valid until 30 October 2025, applies to every eSIM plan you purchase—even if you buy multiple plans at the same time for friends and family traveling with you.
Travel smart and stay connected with Nomad eSIM!
