Re: “Gluesenkamp Perez won a Trump WA district. Now she faces leftist heat” (Might 17, Native Information):
I wish to assume most of us need a consultant who represents the voters’ pursuits — not social gathering ideology nor for advantage signaling to quell naysayers on the perimeter.
Relating to Washington U.S. Rep. Marie Gluesenkamp Perez, the difficulty is that she is voting with Republicans on some fairly doubtful concepts just like the SAVE Act. This proposed Republican invoice panders to conspiracy propaganda about voting fraud. As a consultant who was simply reelected, she would do higher to tell her voters that this invoice may disenfranchise ladies who’ve modified their identify when married. It should put the onus on native counties to pay for altering a voting verification system that fairly actually already works. When native tax {dollars} are tight, why would she vote to take native cash from wanted packages to pay for a brand new system to cease voting fraud when it’s been confirmed to not exist?
Representatives who take heed to their constituents and cling to their oath of workplace to defend the Structure are wanted greater than ever. Voters, don’t confuse this desperately wanted advantage with pandering to the perimeter.
