When will Grijalva be sworn in?

Soon after Grijalva was elected, a political fight began brewing over her swearing-in.

Arizona officials won't formally certify the election until Oct. 14, but Grijalva and other Democrats argue she can be sworn in sooner, using the unofficial results.

The day after Grijalva's election, the timeline was still unclear. House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-Lousiana, responsible for scheduling the swearing-in, was quiet on the matter.
