Summary

With the midterms results in the rearview mirror (at least in the house), Simon sits down with Representative Eric Swalwell (CA-15) to talk about what they mean for Congress moving forward. How will a GOP-led house change things? Will a Speaker McCarthy push through support for Ukraine? How important is a unified Democratic party in the minority? Find out the answers to these and other questions during this thoughtful conversation. Members get a brief conversation between Simon, Tara, and producer Grant Haver about what Democrats can do while in the minority.
