In Wisconsin's Supreme Court race, Chris Taylor defeated conservative Maria Lazar with a 60% to 40% margin, expanding the liberal majority to 5-2.

State Senator Creigh Deeds declared, 'I believe that people should choose their representatives. Representatives shouldn't choose their people.' This statement underscores the traditional argument against gerrymandering, yet it serves as a prelude to the Democrats' call for aggressive redistricting.

Neal (MA-01) even introduced a bill called the American Affordability Act, which promises to reduce housing, educational, and childcare costs with a variety of tax credits. Congressional campaign professionals have been urging candidates from coast to coast to adopt an "affordability agenda." And-for good reason-recent polling shows that the cost of living tops the list of voters' concerns.

All I said to people who say, you have this tension, we didn't have any attention. All I said is, if you want to be a legislator and pass bills, it's important to have the votes to do it. It doesn't help to go online and criticize the people that you want to have because they're not as progressive as you are. She's been a star, eloquent, forceful, and the rest.
