Tom Perez stated, “one thing we’ve learned at the DNC is that when you, in fact or in perception, are trying to put the thumb on the scale in a spirited primary, that can undermine public confidence in us.” It was a comment made to assure progressive Democrats that he would remain neutral during primary elections after it was revealed the previous DNC Chair, Debbie Wassermann Schultz, actively tried to sabotage Bernie Sanders' presidential campaign.



Has Perez lived up to the bar he set? Following the Iowa fiasco, the answer is a clear no. Whether in fact or perception, it is clear that Perez has failed to maintain public confidence in the DNC. Therefore, I am calling on Tom Perez to resign.
