Rep. Sydney Kamlager-Dove knew she needed to say something.
The September closed-door meeting with House Democrats was about staying united and on message. But Kamlager-Dove, a first-term member from California, pointedly stood up to remark that someone in leadership maybe wasn’t the best messenger.
“I asked about being able to trust messaging coming from someone who may be involved in other potentially conflicting activities, like running for president,” Kamlager-Dove told NOTUS.
