Top progressive group comes out against Jim Himes as DCCC chair : Former Goldman Sachs Investment Banker Isn't The Best Image For Populism

The Hill reports:

A major progressive group is hoping to pressure House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) against appointing a congressman close to Wall Street as chairman of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC).

The Progressive Change Campaign Committee (PCCC) sent an email to more than a million members on Thursday, urging them to “call Nancy Pelosi right now and tell her Jim Himes appointment would hurt Democratic chances in 2016.”

As current Chairman Rep. Steve Israel (D-N.Y.) departs after two terms at the helm of the DCCC, progressives are concerned about Himes, a former Goldman Sachs investment banker, and his perceived close relationship with Wall Street.
