New York DSA Candidates Valdez and Chevalier Won Congressional Seats Opposing Ukraine War Funding

What was said

"One of the three candidates that Mondani endorsed who won, Daryliza Chauvallier, actually explicitly opposed US funding of the war in Ukraine. And another, Claire Valdez, though she didn't explicitly do it, a lot of what she's saying is clearly implying it, talking about sending billions of dollars overseas to weapons manufacturers to fuel foreign wars."

Greenwald highlighted that two newly elected DSA congressional candidates in New York City represent a rare left-wing opposition to U.S. Ukraine war funding. Daryliza Chevalier explicitly opposed sending hundreds of billions to arms manufacturers for the Ukraine conflict, while Claire Valdez strongly implied similar views. This breaks with near-total Democratic Party unanimity on Ukraine funding since 2022.
