Congresswoman-elect Lisa Blunt Rochester will be sworn in at noon today in the Library of Congress, followed by a ceremonial swearing in at the Capitol at 3:45 pm. She is the first woman and the first African American in Delaware’s congressional delegation. Delaware until recently had been one of the few remaining states that had not ever been represented by a woman or an African American in Congress. We congratulate her on this milestone, and on the occasion of her swearing-in, which is significant enough already; but we also hope she remembers, as a Representative for Delaware, that she works for the people and not the Banks. At the first sign of bipartisan Carperite fealty, we will know who you really are working for. Fight for the people and against Trump, in everything and every way.
