Capitol Calling Party: Congressional Progressive Caucus: How do we make it more progressive?

Link: https://www.codepink.org/05252021

Details: Every Tuesday CodePink holds a "Congress Party" - their new campaign to mobilize co-sponsors and votes for peace legislation. On May 25 their speakers are:
Michael Darner: executive director, Congressional Progressive Caucus; former legislative director for Congressman John Conyers
Keane Bhatt: foreign policy analyst, Congressional Progressive Caucus; former communications director for Bernie Sanders
Chaired by Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal (WA-07), the Congressional Progressive Caucus (CPC) is made up of nearly 100 members calling for a bolder infrastructure plan, comprehensive immigration reform, and urgent climate action. On foreign policy, the Caucus’s big tent includes dozens who want to reduce the military budget but also representatives who vote for record-high Pentagon budgets and take money from weapons manufacturers!

Can the Caucus’s new rules and dynamic leadership make the Progressive Caucus more progressive on foreign policy and demilitarization? Join the conversation!
