House progressives seek to elect another Jayapal to Congress: ‘Double good trouble’

Published April 23, 2024 1:32pm ET



The Congressional Progressive Caucus is hoping to grow its presence in the House, with Chairwoman Pramila Jayapal (D-WA) suggesting it would be great to have “double good trouble” in Congress by electing her sister, Susheela, in 2024.

Our Revolution, a progressive political action group and outgrowth of Sen. Bernie Sanders’s (I-VT) 2016 presidential campaign, hosted a town hall on Monday with Reps. Jayapal, Ilhan Omar (D-MN), and Jamaal Bowman (D-NY), as well as Susheela Jayapal, who is running for Oregon’s 3rd District to replace retiring, longtime Rep. Earl Blumenauer (D-OR).
