Sen. Warren on Democratic Party Being Called "Too Progressive" - C-SPAN



Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA): "According to some self-described experts, Democrats lost power because we were too progressive. For a lot of powerful people, wealthy people from Wall Street, Silicon Valley, and Washington 'too progressive' is code used to undermine any economic agenda that favors working people.

They put it more politely, but those movers and shakers want the Democratic Party to respond to the 2024 losses by watering down our economic agenda and sucking up to the rich and powerful, claiming that a less progressive Democratic Party will win more elections. They are wrong." - Aired on 01/12/2026.
