According to American Rights at Work, Al Franken said shortly after being sworn-in as the newest senator:
As of about half an hour ago, I became the co-sponsor of my first piece of legislation in the Senate. And it's something called the Employee Free Choice Act.That's a great beginning but we have to demand a great deal more from Senator Franken (That does sound good). He could become a real voice for progressive politics in this country - and boy do we need one. So take a moment and join American Rights at Work and many others of us and welcome him to his new job.
Much more progressive than he ever sounded on his radio show on "Air America". I applaud this move on his part. He is not a progressive, but I hope I'm wrong and he "grows".
