Billboard Magazine published a profile on Rep. Jeffries that explored his work to protect artists' rights, the golden era of Hip Hop in Brooklyn and what it means to live in America under the Trump administration.

"We should still try to approach criminal justice reform in the broadest possible fashion," Jeffries tells Rolling Stone. "There is widespread support for sentencing reform and prison reform amongst the American people. And both blue states and red states have made tremendous progress in this area. There's absolutely no political reason for Congress not to tackle an issue that is not controversial and has been embraced by people on the left and the right."

"Perhaps the most effective questioning came from Rep. Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY). His strategy was simple: use Sessions’ own words to make his point. Jeffries started by establishing that Sessions claimed he “didn’t recall” the answer to various questions dozens of times during his appearances before Congress as attorney general. Jeffries then summarized Sessions’ comments to Fox Business host Lou Dobbs on October 4, 2016 in which he blasted Hillary Clinton for the exact same behavior, suggesting that it could be criminal."
