A Democratic Socialist Running in Nebraska’s Hottest Congressional Race | Melanie Williams

Democratic congressional candidate Melanie Williams joins the show to discuss her run in Nebraska’s 2nd District primary. She outlines her background in activism, her identification as a democratic socialist, and her push for policies like Medicare for All and tuition-free college. We also discuss divisions within the Democratic Party, campaign strategy in a crowded primary field, and her views on U.S. foreign policy, including conflicts in the Middle East and Palestinian sovereignty.
