12. I see Chris Murphy as a strong voice.

He got in front of a microphone several times the past few days - he introduced the NOPE (No Political Enemies Act).

I think Robert Garcia has been doing a good job as ranking member of the Oversight Committee. Chris van Hollen has been sticking his neck out.

There are others who I would like to see in front of the microphone more often, they include. but are not limited: Melanie Stansbury, Eric Swallwell, Maxwell Frost, Jamie Raskin.

IMHO, I would rather see less of Schumer at the microphone. He is still delivering "canned" unimaginative messages.
