House Democrats Dodge DSA Plan to Abolish 3 US Institutions

1 articles · Updated · Fox News · Jul 18

Summary

  • Ro Khanna rejected the proposal but said he had not read it, while Ilhan Omar declined to comment and Pete Aguilar said he is not a DSA member.
  • The new DSA platform, "Workers Deserve More," calls for abolishing the Senate, presidency and Supreme Court, replacing them with a unicameral legislature and Congress-subordinate executive and judiciary.
  • The agenda also seeks to abolish ICE, end deportations, extend voting rights to noncitizens and people with criminal convictions, and pardon immigrants including those convicted of crimes.
  • Friday’s DSA resolution gives the platform teeth by requiring endorsed candidates to accept and promote it, as socialist-backed candidates gain ground in Democratic primaries.
