Hey John, it’s Adelita Grijalva – the Democratic Rep.-Elect
that Speaker Mike Johnson is still refusing to swear in.
When I told the PCCC what Speaker Johnson said about me, they urged me to
reach out and share it with you directly:
[ [link removed] ]Johnson: I saw bless her heart, she's a Representative-elect. She
doesn't know how it works around here."
"Bless her heart... she doesn't know how it works around here."
That’s what he said – dismissive, patronizing, and completely
unacceptable.
Let me be clear, I know exactly how it works. Earlier this year, two
Republicans were sworn in while the House was in recess and less than 24
hours after their elections. My race has been certified. The voters spoke.
It's now been over a month!
My job is to serve, and his job is to swear me in. FULL STOP.
Instead, he's hiding behind smug, patronizing excuses. It's not just
offensive, it's dangerous. A Speaker can't pick which Members to seat
based on politics. That's not how democracy works, that's how it dies.

between the Progressive Change Campaign Committee and my campaign today to
help us keep the pressure on and show we won't accept this abuse of power?
