Democratic Lawmaker Slams Party for Being Stuck in “Old Ways” After AOC’s Oversight Committee Loss
U.S. Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-Calif.) has criticized his own party for being resistant to change, specifically citing the Democratic Caucus’ decision not to appoint Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) as the chair of the House Oversight and Reform Committee.
Swalwell argued that the party’s inability to adapt to new ideas and perspectives is a major issue. He also hinted at the fact that many Democrats are too focused on maintaining their current power structure, rather than making necessary changes to appeal to a broader audience.
This criticism comes after Ocasio-Cortez lost her bid for Oversight Committee chairmanship.
