UStream of Jane’s Panel: Tying the Progressive Movement to Congress for Policymaking

Outside Getting In: Tying the Progressive Movement to Congress for Policymaking

While the Netroots has gotten better at helping elect good candidates to office, there’s still a lot of uncharted territory in making policy happen once the people we elect get there. This panel will discuss how the Netroots and progressive movement can have a greater impact on Congress. We’ll also discuss current Congressional processes and some of the innovations being pursued by the Progressive Caucus.

PANELISTS: Joan McCarter, Darcy Burner, David Waldman, Jane Hamsher, Shaunna Thomas
