The co-chairs in the 116th Congress are Rep. Raúl M. Grijalva of [[Arizona]] and [[Lynn Woolsey]] of [[California]]. Most members represent big-city districts, especially in the Northeast and West Coast. Most were elected by landslides and do not have to worry about reelection. Since the term "liberal" is out of fashion, they use "progressive." The Caucus was founded in 1991. Several members are [[Princeling]]s, or children of former [[communist]] [[bureaucrat]]s and functionaries. No Republican has ever belonged.
