Democratic Socialists of America unveil platform proposing Senate abolition and government restructuring
The Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) is set to release a new policy platform next week that calls for eliminating the U.S. Senate, restructuring the executive and judicial branches so that the president and Supreme Court would be replaced by officials chosen by Congress, granting amnesty to all immigrants, and defunding the Department of War. Fox News reported the proposed measures and featured commentary on their potential impact. A separate analysis highlighted the same proposals and noted a lack of coverage by other mainstream media outlets.
The platform, if adopted, would represent a significant shift from the current separation of powers and immigration policy framework in the United States.
