Excerpt:
House Democrats have agreed on a new campaign slogan ahead of the 2018 midterm elections, announcing it at a private meeting Wednesday.
Politico reports that party leaders chose the slogan For the People after a first try, "A Better Deal," failed to resonate with voters.
We have 110 days from right now until Election Day and we will be spending the month of August in our home districts and we wanted to make sure we are singing from the same song sheet on the three top issues, Democratic messaging co-chair Rep. Cheri Bustos (D-Ill.) said.
I dont think any of us are claiming this is poetic or this is the end-all-be-all of messaging, Bustos added. Its just a way, in a quick way, to put together the answer to what we stand for.
