Don Bacon is still up to his same old political games in DC – his votes this week only contributed to the dysfunction in Congress amid his party’s infighting and have enabled the continued paralysis of the House of Representatives.  And now, Bacon is heading home with the House still speaker-less, barreling toward a government […]

Today, the DCCC announced two additions to the Frontline program for the 2024 cycle. “Chaos, dysfunction, unpredictability: it’s clear that House Republicans are dangerous for the middle class and our national security,” said DCCC Chair Suzan DelBene. “When you compare Reps. Titus and Gonzalez’s strong records of delivering for working families to the extremism of their Republican […]

House Republicans failed again today to elect a speaker, continuing to paralyze the House of Representatives.

Marc Molinaro flip-flopped to join his fellow vulnerable and spineless New York Republicans Nick LaLota and Anthony D’Esposito in wasting their vote in the GOP’s latest effort to continue their chaotic, ongoing speaker fight.  Before flip-flopping, Molinaro voted twice for failed speaker candidate and extremist Jim Jordan, who has directly hurt New Yorkers: Voted against […]

DCCC Spokesperson Ellie Dougherty: “George Santos digging his heels into an […]

For the third time this week, Lauren Boebert has voted for fellow extremist and Freedom Caucus founder Jim Jordan for speaker.

Block a bipartisan law that honors veterans exposed […]
