Blue America’s First Incumbent Endorsement Of 2022: Marie Newman – Blue America
They note:
The Republican Party Is Targeting Marie Newman – Blue America - presumably because they think that they might be able to win.
A few days ago, the NRCC announced ten new targets they’re working on flipping. Most of the seats are held by a pack of conservative New Dems and Blue Dogs from the Republican wing of the Democratic Party.
One of them isn’t: our old friend Marie Newman, who we helped– over the course of two cycles– oust one of the anti-woman conservative Blue Dogs, Dan Lipinski, and show the Chicagoland residents of her district what it means to have a really good member of Congress working for their interests.
Last year, Marie won her district 56.4% to 43.6%, even better than Biden’s 55.5% to 42.9% win over Trump in the district.
Then about how busy MN has been.
Last year, Marie won her district 56.4% to 43.6%, even better than Biden’s 55.5% to 42.9% win over Trump in the district. She immediately jumped into the fray, co-sponsoring Medicare-for-All, the Green New Deal, the For the People Act (HR-1), the PRO Act, DC statehood, the Equality Act, the George Floyd Justice in Policing Act, and bills in favor of postal banking, student debt relief, ending the filibuster, expanding the Supreme Court…
On top of that, she has written– either alone or with partners– an incredibly large number of bills for a freshman, including America’s Clean Future Fund Act (which would establish a new independent agency tasked with providing grants and loan guarantees for finance climate mitigation, support job creation, and encourage private investment., while providing transition assistance and workforce development programs; decarbonization transition payments to improve carbon-reduction practices; and providing low- and middle-income consumers with quarterly rebates) and two micro-loan acts that have come out of the Small Business Administration Committee, of which she is a member, and that encourages equality and efficiency in small business loans.
NRCC Expands Offensive Map, Announces 10 New Targets Following Reapportionment - NRCC I've added their 2019-20 govtrack.us ideology scores, where available. Nearly all of them are relatively conservative Democrats.
