About New Direction Now

What this site is

New Direction Now is an independent opinion site. It is not affiliated with any political party, candidate or campaign. It argues that Hakeem Jeffries and Chuck Schumer have not earned the power Democrats handed them, and that a growing number of Democratic voters want new leadership and a new direction: accountability under the law, honesty about secret meetings, and an end to the status quo.

What it argues

Democrats won the House and the Senate. Democratic voters did not do that to get the same leaders and the same playbook. A growing number of them want new leadership and a new direction: no more status quo, no more old ways, no more corporate Democrats, and leaders who refuse corporate and AIPAC money. Any elected Democrat who votes to hand Hakeem Jeffries the Speaker's gavel or Chuck Schumer the Senate Majority Leader job will face organized opposition for the next two years.

How this site works

Opinion is labeled "Our view" and styled differently from facts. Every factual statement matches its source and carries a source link. The site links to articles and never copies them. It paraphrases every fact in its own words. It does not say or imply anyone took bribes, was bought, or broke any law. It does not state or imply as fact what was said in the Jeffries and Kushner meeting.

Corrections

If we got a fact wrong, tell us and we will fix it.
