Newly elected Democratic senators have arrived in Washington for their orientation, facing immediate scrutiny about their governance plans. Among them is Abdul El-Sayed from Michigan, who has made history as the first Muslim elected to the Senate.
El-Sayed’s election followed a challenging campaign characterized by significant external influence and attacks focusing on his identity and beliefs. Despite these hurdles, he emerged victorious.
In a conversation with Amna Nawaz, El-Sayed shared his ambitions to bring substantial changes to Washington. Nawaz, a notable figure in journalism, serves as the co-anchor and co-managing editor of PBS News Hour.
