But you're still making my point for me

The fact is though that, with the Democratic majority in the House being so small now, AOC and "The Squad" could hold up "important" (i.e., important to the billionaire mega-donors) legislation in the House just as much as Joe Manchin and Kristen Sinema regularly do in the Senate. The Squad could hold the legislation up (by threatening to vote against it) until they get something in return. They could do this - but they seem to be afraid to, and maybe with good reason, since Pelosi controls the distribution/allocation of Dem national campaign funds, and she could withhold these funds from those who don't toe her line. And of course, no re-election campaign money. . . no re-election.
