President-elect Biden will take office in January 2021 with a slim Democratic majority in the House of Representatives and, depending on the outcome of runoff elections in Georgia, a Senate that is either narrowly Republican-controlled or split 50-50, with Vice President-elect Kamala Harris as the tie-breaking vote. As a result, almost all legislative initiatives will require bipartisan compromise, and major policy changes requiring congressional action will be difficult to achieve.
