A Rising Tide Lifts All Boats
In this episode we talk about the minimum wage, how it got to where it is today, and both the moral and political cases to raise it to $15 per hour.

Thriving Behind Enemy Lines
<p>Leftward Expansion takes a look at Congressional Democrats representing districts won by Trump in the 2020 Presidential race. We examine what issues they campaigned on, how they spoke to their voters, their personalities, and their ideology that made winning in a red district possible in this hyper-partisan era. We think that other Democrats running in conservative areas around the United States can draw wisdom from these strategies to win their own elections!</p>
