My biggest issue is that no conversation about leveraging their votes is happening in the progressive caucus.
That's because it's all taking place next month. The Dems have only a 4 person majority so I'm sure various groups within the Dems are thinking about how to make the most of this situation. It's Pelosi's last term as Speaker and she probably would want to avoid conflict at the beginning of Biden's term
I don't disagree. My biggest issue is that no conversation about leveraging their votes is happening in the progressive caucus.
They can express political power for the first time, and there is no will.

I really doubt they plan on leveraging their votes publicly given the response so far.
