NewDEAL CEO Debbie Cox Bultan joined Chuck Todd on the Chuck Toddcast for a wide-ranging conversation about the future of the Democratic Party, the role of state and local leadership, and how Democrats can reconnect with voters by focusing on delivering results.

During the interview, Debbie made the case that voters are looking for leaders who can solve problems, lower costs, and make government work better. She described NewDEAL Leaders as “get things done Democrats”—leaders who are focused on pragmatic solutions, effective governing, and improving people’s everyday lives rather than inflammatory rhetoric. The conversation also explored the growing importance of state and local leaders in shaping the future of the Democratic Party, why affordability must remain at the center of the party’s agenda, and how Democrats can build broad coalitions by getting and emphasizing results.

Debbie also discussed NewDEAL’s work identifying, supporting, and elevating rising leaders who are driving innovation in their communities and building the next generation of Democratic leadership.
