We need to contact members of the Progressive Caucus

and urge them to endorse and use their super delegate vote for Bernie Sanders. It's time for the members of this austere body to put up or shut up. They need to overwhelmingly hear from US! Please spread the word for this action. Here's the membership list

I'm not sure.

I think it better to ask why they haven't yet endorsed Bernie.

to go against the will of the populace. Endorse, fine, but superdelegates should not be voting for a specific candidate, but simply for whichever candidate obtains a plurality of the vote, if a majority of the vote is not obtained by any given candidate. They should be reinforcing the will of the people, not voting strategically to support their preferred candidates.

through the list and one person, co-chair Raul Grijalva has endorsed Bernie. Most of the rest have endorsed Hillary.
