Progressives face first establisment challenge in House

There will be a vote on the Dem rules which includes the insidious pay-go rule that will thwart progressive policies like Medicare For All and the Green New Deal. It will require 18 progressive votes to defeat it. Ocasio-Cortez, Ro Khanna and Sanders have vowed to vote no. There are enough progressives in the new House to defeat it, so hopefully they will pass this first test on their commitment to we the people.
