She has been in congress since 2008. She was Chairwoman of the Congressional Black Caucus. She was the first female and first African-American mayor pf Warrensville Heights. And, before being elected congress in a special election, she was the Chief of Staff of Stephanie Tubbs Jones, a Democrat as well

No matter anyone's opinion about who should be speaker. A flat out lie about a Democratic Congressional Rep is unacceptable

I remember Ms Fudge from several years back. The republikkans were all in a tizzie about her. She was featured on the Daily Show. I joined her youtube channel shortly after

I appreciate you setting the record straight. I would have believed the lie just because it was said on DU.

I alerted the post because it breaks the rule about not bashing a Democratic figure.

find any evidence of that last night when I saw another post of yours on "Marcia Fudge being a republican".

Kathleen Rice used to be a republican up until 13 years ago..

Political party?: ?Republican? (Before 2005);
