Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders is planning to reassert control over a powerful committee in the upcoming Congress, VTDigger reports. Sanders told NBC News that Americans demand genuine change, not tinkering around the edges, and urged Democrats to push for comprehensive healthcare. He also warned that the party cannot devote all its efforts to Trump inquiries while preparing to govern. Progressive organizers credit Sanders’s long-term strategy for the comeback, noting his consistent demand for party transformation. Sanders insisted the focus must remain on healthcare and economic equity rather than endless investigations.
