Henrietta TreyzGUEST
Ron Wyden will be the Senate Finance Committee chair.
Henrietta TreyzGUEST
Richie Neal will be the House Ways and Means Committee chair.
Henrietta TreyzGUEST
You're going to want to pay attention to what those members are doing on both these.
Morgan BrennanHOST
Okay.
Toby MoffettGUEST
You're going to have Blumenthal chairing this permanent subcommittee on investigations, I think.
Toby MoffettGUEST
And then you're going to have Richie Neal up the road in Springfield, Mass., chairman of Ways and Means.
Toby MoffettGUEST
Jim McGovern in Massachusetts, chairman of rules.
Toby MoffettGUEST
Catherine Clark, the majority leader.
DCHOST
And to see what this looks like, we can go back to November 2018 when Democrats gained about 40 House seats, their biggest gain since the post-Watergate election of 1974.
DCHOST
By January the following year, Elijah Cummings ran Oversight, Jerry Nadler ran Judiciary, Adam Schiff ran Intelligence, and Richard Neal ran Ways and Means.
DCHOST
Neal used a section of the tax code to request six years of Trump's tax returns.
DCHOST
Treasury Secretary Mnuchin refused, and that turned into a court fight lasting years.
Dan MullhallGUEST
You will see two very prominent Irish-Americans becoming chairs of two of the most important committees in the House of Representatives.
Dan MullhallGUEST
I'm talking about Congressman Richie Neal of Massachusetts, who will become the chairman of the Ways and Means Committee, which is the most powerful committee in the House.
Dan MullhallGUEST
And then Brendan Boyle of Pennsylvania, whose father comes from Donegal, will be the chair of the Budget Committee, another very important committee.
Dan MullhallGUEST
And that will give Brendan Boyle, obviously, a platform for which to move on to maybe higher things, a possible senator in the future.
Greg PappasGUEST
there? Endorsed a Republican candidate, not the Democrat.
Teddy PanosHOST
Is it O'Brien or O'Neal?
Greg PappasGUEST
I can't remember their name, but he went against Tariq, whatever his name is.
Greg PappasGUEST
Tallarico, yeah.
Nadia MilleronGUEST
So really, the fact that he's a lackey for the very wealthy and for these package companies like Federal Express and UPS, the fact that he carries water for them and that they do give him money for his campaigns, it's a travesty and he does not represent the people in this district and he does not care about them.
Monte BelmonteHOST
And just to be clear, the fabulous 413 does not say Richie Neal is killing anyone, but that you are saying that you think that he pulled his support from this bill that would have inspected these packages under $800 if it were not for you running against him.
Monte BelmonteHOST
So punitive to your husband and what he was working on in an advocacy setting because of the fact that you were running against him.
Nadia MilleronGUEST
Yes.
Ralph NaderHOST
And here is a vote.
Ralph NaderHOST
147 Democrats supported the impeachment, but the leadership, Jeffries, Richard Neal from Massachusetts and others, voted present.
Ralph NaderHOST
47 voted present, which undermined the whole effort.
Ralph NaderHOST
And Jeffries, when he's asked about impeachment, he says, I don't want to get near that discussion now.

Jimmy Lee WirtCORRESPONDENT
Plus, David has a question about big lies.
Ralph NaderHOST
Well, let me give you an example of one terrible ad that's not backfiring.
Ralph NaderHOST
And it happens to be put on nonstop television in Western Massachusetts by the leading corporate Democrat incumbent, Richard Neal, who was formerly the head of the powerful House Ways and Means Committee when Pelosi was speaker.
Ralph NaderHOST
He's put in over $4 million in the last few days in a blanket ad.
LindyAUDIENCE
First of all, I want to talk about our governor, how she's passing stuff out, so on and so forth.
LindyAUDIENCE
She's a He's playing footsies with Richie Neal up here in Western Mass.
LindyAUDIENCE
And you probably know about this.
LindyAUDIENCE
He was a special delegate for Hillary Clinton.
LindyAUDIENCE
Not only that, but she went down to the Veterans Cemetery in Agawam and She was smiling away and everything, wearing her sunglasses.
LindyAUDIENCE
But those two together, I tell you, they're rotten apples.
LindyAUDIENCE
And Richie Neal should be the poster boy for term limits, believe
Howie CarrHOST
me.

Anna EdneyPANELIST
So who knows? But yeah, not super promising at the moment, given the political landscape.
Victoria KnightPANELIST
I will say I have talked to Ways and Means ranking member Richard Neal, and I've asked him about priorities.
Victoria KnightPANELIST
He has said long-term care is top of his list, and then finance ranking member Ron Wyden has put out papers, which Adriel referenced in his story, about solutions to this.
Victoria KnightPANELIST
I still feel like it's in the idea space and not so much the reality space, but I do feel like we're coming to a crux moment, and I think that we need to, like, lawmakers realize that we need to do something about insurance.
