To win in Illinois on Tuesday, Marie Newman didn’t just defeat the anti-abortion Rep. Dan Lipinski, but also party leadership

Her victory was a lone bright spot for progressives, who saw their hopes for a Bernie Sanders presidency fade amidst a slew of victories for Joe Biden.
Newman’s candidacy thus divided House leadership — namely, Speaker Nancy Pelosi and DCCC chairwoman Cheri Bustos — from a number of their allies in the labor and reproductive rights movement. The same dynamic emerged in Texas, where Pelosi campaigned for conservative incumbent Henry Cuellar against Jessica Cisneros, a progressive 26-year-old immigration attorney.
