ANALYSIS
The fate of President-elect Joe Biden’s legislative agenda hinges on the outcome of two US Senate races in Georgia on January 5.
The Georgia races are critical because they will determine whether Democrats will take control of the Senate — and, therefore, political power in Washington. With Biden headed to the White House and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi still in control of the US House, Democrats will control the executive branch and at least half of the legislative branch once Biden takes office later this month.
