Minnesota: Sen. Al Franken has already earned this year’s pay with his successful amendment to the 2010 Defense Appropriations bill making it illegal to for the government to pay any contractor who makes their employees resolve allegations of rape and sexual harassment through arbitration. Amazingly, thirty Republicans voted against it.
Illinois: I agree with Swing State Project that the Republicans need to stop running people named Ryan in the Land of Lincoln.
Iowa: I love Christie Vilsack and would love to see her take on Chuck Grassley.
