Hey guys Johnson and I where approached by NDP leadership to form a coalition in order to form a Majority in the House. Basically we'll be caucusing with them. Here's what then sent and I agreed to:
"My party is willing to side with you, and we don't have too crazy of conditions. All we want is 1 of three docket spots, and support for our current appointments. In exchange, we will support your speaker nominee I actually prefer this too, the Federalists would rather drain us than work with us"
That is from Tyler, their party leader.
This is from GB Hughes "Despite how Bruce tried to write us - as radical Federalists - we split off because we were more in favor of state's rights than the Fed leadership, so it would be a natural fit."
On our end we asked that they not bring up any anti slavery BS bills or resolutions.
This is for all the marbles. With the NDP caucusing with us we'll be able to grab the speaker-ship and Majority Party status. It's a big win for us, especially in the press. Now we can just pummel away at the Federalists while they mostly eat each other alive going after the NDP.
Tomorrow I'll open up Speaker and Majority Leader nominating threads.
