Ranked #230 out of 240 House Dems, fuckin yikes.

EDIT: Notables include Ilhan Omar at #214, Raul Grijalva at #14, Ro Khanna at #32, Rashida Tlaib at #92, and Bernie Sanders ranked #97 out of 100 in the Senate.

like, literally the main thing any Sanders/Squad supporter cares about is their values – people are well aware that the progressive/unapologetic self-identified socialist faction has very little influence in Congress, but people want their ideas visible (which has been done), people want them publicly debated (also a successful effort), and people want more representation of these viewpoints (which is an ongoing effort but by all measures is going fine at least). “Bernie/whoever else never gets anything done” has always been a bad faith, bad take.

Regardless of what you think of Bernie Sanders, the people of Vermont have been electing him to Congress since 1990, so it seems that enough of his constituents are satisfied with his performance.
