The New Democrat Coalition, which comprises around 100 members, has officially endorsed Rep. Gerry Connolly for ranking member of the House Oversight Committee over Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. This decision highlights the ongoing ideological divide within the Democratic Party, where centrist and progressive caucuses vie for influence and leadership positions.
Rep. Gerry Connolly has been recognized for his extensive experience and effectiveness in combating GOP conspiracy theories over his sixteen years on the committee. His supporters emphasize that he embodies the no-nonsense, steady leadership needed to navigate the challenges posed by the new Trump administration and Republican-controlled Congress.
