Rep. Jake Auchincloss

We're in the minority and we have to hold the line.

I don't have a problem with discipline.

I do have a problem with an ideological straitjacket because that ideological straitjacket is asphyxiating new ideas and young talent.

And it's going to lock us into a permanent minority as a party, even putting aside the rigging and the gerrymandering that Republicans are contesting.

If we stay in this present course after the census in 2030, we will be locked out of a governing majority as a party.

We have to realign the electorate.

We have to define a new center based on the best ideas across different ideological factions in this country and be unapologetic about it.

That means specific ideas that actually explain to the American people not just who we are against but what we are for.

Good to be with you, David.
