Newly elected Rep. Nicole Malliotakis (R-N.Y.) said Friday there seems to be an interest in forming a group to counter the Squad.
In the House, a group of progressive women with a socialist agenda became known as the Squad including Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.), Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.), Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich.), and Ayanna Pressley (D-Mass.). They have supported “Defunding the Police,” Medicare for all, free college education, “The Green New Deal,” and other socialist policies.
