She has said as has Nina Turner that economic populism is the issue that needs to be used in determining progressive bonafides...social justice...not so much.


“Every single Democrat is not necessarily pro-choice,” said Nina Turner, a former Ohio state senator from Cleveland and an ally of Mr. Sanders. “And Democrats need to understand that, and not vilify people because of it.”

Holding up her city’s mix of African-Americans and heavily Catholic descendants of eastern Europeans, Ms. Turner said economic justice bound Democrats together. “I was raised in the black church, and my momma would probably be rolling over in her grave over how I stood up for reproductive health because I was raised a different way,” she said.

Jane Kleeb, the Nebraska Democratic Party chairwoman, helped organize the event for Mr. Mello and has since come under attack for saying that Democrats were “pro-life” and “pro-choice.” She offered no apology.

“If the abortion rights groups are truly serious about cross-issue organizing,” she said, “they should know the foundation of that has to be economic issues.”
