If he's only Depity chair, no reason he can't do both.

chair. Right now it works out well for the party to have more leaders hitting the talk show circuit. Expect Perez to be more focused on the fundraising end.

It's a great show of unity.

It should allow him to stay in Congress.

he gained positive recognition as a new leader. I hope we will be hearing much more from him in the future.
