House progressives intend to leverage their growing influence next year to compel votes on significant and contentious policies. Their ultimate aim is to place issues like Medicare for All and abolishing ICE on the Democratic presidential agenda by 2029. They believe forcing votes on these proposals is crucial for assessing their party's stance and building necessary support. Key policy priorities include Medicare for All, with a bill already boasting substantial co-sponsorship. Progressives also advocate for abolishing or defunding ICE, pushing for a complete dismantle of the agency. Furthermore, they aim to restrict aid to Israel through legislation like the Block The Bombs Act. Beyond these, progressives are also vocal about regulating AI, reforming campaign finance, and addressing affordability issues. They are preparing to use their voting power for policy concessions, even without immediate control of the Speaker's gavel.
