Repukes are absolutely opposed to our lifeline New Deal programs

If Dems refuse to defend, then where are we?

...but why is necessary to spin that Pelosi isn't defending the programs to mount a calling campaign?

Doesn't hurt to call, but it would be great if instead of calling about spin, people would put the same amount of energy into calling her to support the Progressive Caucus' budget.
