Daily Dems Doing the Work, Making Noise and Fighting Back Day 95
There were some pretty big fights announced today as well as some great transparency and noise.
Ready?
Rep Mark Pocan (WI-02)
Released a new episode of his podcast “With Liberty and Justice for Some.” In this episode, he interviews AFL-CIO President, Liz Shuler

Sen Mark Warner (VA)
Announced that he is going to be looking into the corruption in the White House. This is a pre-announcement. We will have a full rollout in the very near future. But I’m extremely excited, this is exactly what we wanna see.

Rep Janelle Bynum (OR-05)
Had today’s Democratic Daily Download and I think it’s one of the best episodes I’ve seen on the subject of the budget cuts. She talks about how the food pantry near her won’t be able to have perishables anymore. That’s the kind of things these budget cuts affect.

New Democrat Coalition
Released a new episode of their podcast “The Fly-in” hosted by Reps Marc Veasey (TX-33) and Greg Landsman (OH-01) with guests Jim Himes (CT-04) and Kristen Mcdonald-Rivet (MI-08) all about the first hundred days.

Sen Ruben Gallego (AZ)
Did a really thorough yet super simple breakdown of what the vet home loan program was and why it will no longer exist (hint, turns out the admin doesn’t care about vets at all.)

Reps Dave Min (CA-47) and Mike Levin (CA-49)
Sent a letter, but it’s not to the admin or anyone in the admin, it’s to the Florida bar asking them to look into Pam Bondi’s conduct.

And while we’re on the subject, Rep Levin launched his Substack today! It seems to be basically an easier-to-read version of what is on his website. I was just complaining today about the fact that it’s so hard to keep track of all the press releases, but if every elected did this, it wouldn’t be

Reps Jared Moskowitz (FL-23) and Jamie Raskin (MD-08)
Had one of their famous committee comedy routines with Rep Sydney Kamlager Dove (CA-37) as the all-important hypewoman. This one about republican waste. You’ve probably seen this already, but I couldn’t not include it, especially because no one who reposted it or commented knew who Rep Kamlager Dove was.

And we have to talk about Rep Moskowitz’s tie. Lauren Green caught up with him to talk about it, but she works for Washington Examiner, so I’m not sure she even understood it. But we do. 👊🇺🇸🔥 I hope he wears the tie every day until Hegseth resigns or is fired.
And finally…
CA Reps Mark Takano (CA-39) and Robert Garcia (CA-42)
Both brought up Andry Hernandez Romero on the floor of the House today.

I know that was really long, but I’m really bad at leaving out anything.
Comment with 💄(lipstick) cause I’m so glad they’re talking about Romero if you made it to the end, and 👔 (a shirt with a tie, though not the fantastic signalgate one) if you read or watched one of the links
Our voices are superpower, but only when we use them!
Omg so much good stuff today! Proud of our Dems. Loved the walking video “another dumb doge cut that makes zero sense.” And the Signalgate tie! Thanks Ariella! 💄👔
