Squad Member Rashida Tlaib Will Deliver Far-Left Response To Biden’s State Of The Union

As the Democrat Party attempts to portray Joe Biden as a successful president in the midst of record high inflation, a nationwide crime wave, and now chaos in Europe, the far-left of the party is adding one more thing they don’t need. 

In addition to the traditional GOP response to the President’s State Of The Union speech, Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) will be delivering a progressive response.

The timing of Tlaib’s response is not good as Democrats try to present a united front before a midterm election that does not bode well for them.

Leftist Group Receives Tlaib Respondent

Tlaib, a second term Congresswoman who may be best known for calling former President Donald Trump a “mother f***er” following his election, is part of a far-left group of progressive lawmakers that have been dubbed “The Squad.”

Next week she will speak on behalf of The Working Families Party (a smaller left-leaning group). 

No doubt, she will be criticizing moderate Democrats and Republicans for not spending more money. In a tweet, the Working Families Party stated:

“Obstructionist Republicans as well corporate Democrats have made D.C. impotent while millions are being pushed into poverty by rising prices.”

Who are the Working Families Party members?

The Working Families Party website explains everything about why Rashida Tlaib, Squad member, would speak on behalf of them.

“The People’s Charter” calls for things like “repairing historic harms and end systemic racism.” That includes “shifting resources” away from police, a.k.a., defund the police, ending zoning laws, enacting universal health and child care, and last but certainly not least, taxing the rich.

You can also see the agenda of their endorsements by looking at the list of candidates nationwide.

In addition to Tlaib’s fellow Squad member New York Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, there are figures like New York Attorney General Letitia James, and Jessica Cisneros, who is challenging moderate, pro-borders Democrat Rep. Henry Cuellar in Texas.

Tlaib Hurting Not Helping…Democrats

Politico reports that Tlaib will call out fellow Democrats such as Sens. Joe Manchin (D-WV) and Kyrsten Sinema (D-AZ) who were opponents of Biden’s “Build Back Better” bill. 

Maurice Mitchell is the national director for Working Families Party.

“We’re going to be clear about who and why the agenda is incomplete. There are particular political actors — of course Republicans, but then a very niche, small group of obstructionist Democrats. And we’re going to name names.”

Rashida Tlaib’s progressive response to the State of the Union may be cheered on by the very people she would not want cheerleading from. Republicans will welcome the chance to shine a spotlight on the growing divide within the Democrat Party between left-leaning progressives such as AOC and Tlaib, and all of the other squad members.

The majority of Democrats desire a united front. However, the progressives consider pre-midterm primary elections a chance for far-left candidates and to advance the process further into Congress.
