Prominent progressives are calling for Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.) to resign or step down from her post on the Senate Judiciary Committee due to her lengthy absence due to health issues. Rep. Ro Khanna (D-Calif.) argued that not speaking out about Feinstein's resignation "undermines our credibility as elected representatives of the people," and that while Feinstein has had a lifetime of public service, "it is obvious she can no longer fulfill her duties." Feinstein has yet to comment on the calls for her resignation, and it remains to be seen if she will step down or continue to serve in the Senate.
