Response from the Prog Left

Republican Arkansas Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders will not give the sole response to President Biden’s State of the Union address Tuesday. Democratic Rep. Delia Ramirez also will follow up with a response, this from the progressive left, according to The Nation.

Ramirez “will counsel that Democrats can and must offer a bold progressive program as the counterpoint to Republican obstruction and extremism,” according to the report.

“That gives Democrats an opportunity – if we can seize it,” Ramirez told The Nation. Her response to the address is on behalf of the Working Families Party, described as “promoting a progressive agenda deeply rooted in commitments to economic, social, racial justice, climate action and just foreign policy.”
