A CBS News video asks whether Democrats’ progressive wing can broaden its appeal among swing voters as a new Congress takes shape.

CBS has separately covered disagreements between moderate and progressive Democrats after the party’s 2024 White House loss. EconoTimes has also covered a planned Denver gathering of potential 2028 Democratic contenders. The gathering was organized by Majority Democrats, chaired by Massachusetts Rep. Jake Auchincloss. The group says it aims to widen the party’s reach and sustain Democratic majorities.

The video asks what the next group of lawmakers may mean for the party. CBS cites the Tea Party, MAGA and democratic socialism as part of the political backdrop to its question.

The midterm vote is scheduled for Nov. 3. The new Congress begins Jan. 3, 2027.
