GOP Can't Govern with Rep. Chris Deluzio

On Democracy with FPWellman - A podcast by Fred Wellman - Fridays

Pennsylvania first term Representative Chris Deluzio joins Fred from the Capitol as total chaos unfolds and the House Republicans fail to find any consensus on a new Speaker. Nothing is getting done for the country or our allies as the clock ticks down to another shutdown. Rep. Deluzio is a native of Western Pennsylvania representing Pennsylvania’s 17th district. An Iraq War veteran, Naval Academy graduate, voting rights attorney, and union organizer, Congressman Deluzio was commissioned as an active-duty surface warfare officer in the U.S. Navy and deployed three times, including a tour of duty as a U.S. Army Civil Affairs Officer in Iraq. After returning from Iraq, Congressman Deluzio received his law degree from Georgetown Law and clerked for a federal judge. He went on to work at the Brennan Center for Justice on the Voting Rights and Election Security teams and later worked at Pitt Cyber, where he focused on voting rights, election security, and the intersection of technology and civil rights. He was part of the Pitt Faculty Organizing Committee with the United Steelworkers, fighting successfully for a union.
