POLITICO names Donna Edwards one of the "Rookies of the year"

We could have told you that Rep. Donna Edwards (MD-04) was a rising star when we supported her in her challenger race last year -- but we don't mind hearing it from other people, too.

The first-term Congresswoman was recently featured by POLITICO as "a rising star on the left" with a "willingness to work." The article goes on to say she has "immersed herself in the concerns of her demographically diverse district during her first year in Congress."

From her commitment to her constituents to her passion for progressive change, Donna is exactly the kind of leader Washington needs -- and we couldn't be prouder to be part of her team. Donna is determined to change the political landscape for the better -- and we love seeing her in action.
