The Future of the Democratic Party and Politics of the Biden Harris Administration

Products You May Like

The Democratic Party won the presidential election and gained majorities in both chambers of Congress. The Democrats appear increasingly divided, however. Politicians such as Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Bernie Sanders, who have managed to rally young voters, represent a more left-leaning position than, for example, President Joe Biden.

President Biden’s extensive political platform includes tackling the climate emergency, uniting the country, beating Covid-19, delivering racial justice, and making America the leading force for good in the world.

What political reforms can we expect from the Biden-Harris administration? How is the Democratic Party doing after also gaining majorities in both chambers of Congress? To what an extent is there room for an internal discussion on the future of the Party?
