El-Sayed: Chris Van Hollen Strikes a Great Balance Between Generational Change and Someone Who Could Shepherd Legislation
RUSH EXCERPT:
EL-SAYED: “Well, like I said, I, you know obviously a lot of the the, the new members, represent a real generational change but there’s also something about the way the Senate works. And so I think he strikes a really great balance between the kind of generational change that we’re asking for in new leadership but also somebody who’s been in and around the Senate and the House to understand how to shepherd legislation through the process. And I think you know, he just represents that that unique ability both to have earned his statesmanship and have earned his stripes as a legislator while also So being really attuned to what folks now and I’ll just point to one want now, I, I’ll point to one instance of his leadership You know, his work when it came to Kilmar Abrego Garcia, his willingness to go and fly down take a real risk to raise the issue and force the conversation that’s the kind of action I think people want now.”
