One core responsibility of the Minority Leader is to keep the party’s senators aligned around strategy and messaging. And yet Chuck couldn’t keep eight senators from defecting. With key midterms and a changing electorate ahead, a change in leadership will help the party reset and present a new face.” Registration link and details.
