Incoming House Member Don Leonard (D-OH) has asked for two preconditions before he votes for Hakeem Jeffries as Speaker: working for a Constitutional Amendment to end the Citizens United decision, and ending support for Israel and the war in Iran.
In response, the party has told him to drop his demands, or else they will make his "life a living hell" and ensure he doesn't get reelected in 2028.
These kind of threats have no place in a party that calls itself "Democratic". They are refusing the will of the majority of voters who brought them their new majority. Such threats need to be confronted or they will continue, just as in fascism. Progressives are tired of obstruction of popular policies by corporate Democrats like Jeffries.
Call your Representative every day and tell them to oppose Jeffries for Speaker.
Pass it on. We need to be each other's news media.
