密歇根州民主党参议员埃莉萨·斯洛特金表示，她认为民主党需要“新领导层”，并指出该党在2024年选举失利后从未完全恢复元气。
周三在接受SiriusXM电台《直接射手》节目采访时，这位参议员对主持人斯蒂芬·A·史密斯表示：“党内每天都在就未来道路展开辩论。”
“这就是为什么我认为我们需要强有力的新领导层。旧模式不再奏效，民主党也不例外，”她说道。
斯洛特金解释称，众议院和参议院都需要新的领导人，并补充说其所在政党需要将重心更多地放在几个关键议题上。

“民主党在2024年遭遇惨败。我身处摇摆州，同年成功连任。对我而言，教训很简单：民主党优先事项过多。他们试图取悦所有人、回应所有问题。当你将所有事情都列为优先时，没人知道你到底代表什么，”斯洛特金说道。
“唐纳德·特朗普带着一条清晰的信息上台。他说：‘我会让你们的生活更负担得起，我会让你们口袋里的钱更多。’他获胜是因为他的信息简单明了，聚焦于美国人最关心的议题，”她补充道。
本周早些时候，斯洛特金在一次演讲中表示，民主党需要回归 basics，专注于经济和教育等议题。

“我们只需要向民众展示，我们所关心的是这样一种经济：只要你努力工作、遵守规则，就能脱颖而出，你的孩子也能过得更好，”她当时说道。
斯洛特金呼吁新领导层之际，本周纽约民主党初选中，多名民主社会主义者及其他进步派候选人获胜，他们得到了纽约市长候选人佐赫兰·曼达尼的支持。曼达尼的竞选活动强调负担能力和改善工薪阶层居民的生活条件。
民主党全国委员会主席肯·马丁自2025年2月上任以来一直在试图缓解党内紧张局势。不过斯洛特kin暗示，要实现有意义的转变，需要对党的领导层进行更广泛的变革。

Slotkin says Democratic Party needs ‘new leadership’: ‘Old models are no longer working’
Sen Elissa Slotkin’s remarks come as democratic socialists scored primary wins in New York

Rep. Mike Lawler: Democratic Party has moved ‘further and further to the left’ since 2016
New York Congressman Mike Lawler (R) discusses the leftward shift of the Democratic Party since Bernie Sanders’ 2016 campaign, asserting that radical views are now mainstream. He highlights Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s endorsement of his opponent, contrasting her socialist agenda with his conservative legislative achievements, including tax cuts and border security.

Sen. Elissa Slotkin, D-Mich., said she believes the Democratic Party is in need of “new leadership,” arguing that the party never completely recovered after its losses in the 2024 elections.
During an appearance on SiriusXM’s “Straight Shooter” on Wednesday, the senator told host Stephen A. Smith, “Every day there’s a debate within the party about the path forward.”
“That’s why I believe we need significant new leadership. The old models are no longer working, and that includes the Democratic Party,” she said.
Slotkin explained that new leaders are needed in both the House and the Senate, adding that her party needs to center its focus more on a few key issues.

“Democrats were soundly defeated in 2024. I was in a swing state, and I won that same year. To me, the lesson was simple. Democrats had too many priorities. They tried to make everyone happy and answer every question. When you prioritize everything, no one knows what you actually stand for,” Slotkin said.
“Donald Trump came in with one clear message. He said, ‘I’m going to make your life more affordable. I’m going to put more money in your pocket.’ He won because he kept his message simple and focused on the issue Americans cared most about,” she added.
Earlier this week, Slotkin said in a speech that Democrats need to get back to basics by addressing issues such as the economy and education.

“We just need to show people that what we care about is an economy where if you work hard and play by the rules, you get ahead and your kids do better,” she said at the time.
Slotkin’s call for new leadership comes as Democratic socialists and other progressive candidates posted several victories in New York’s Democratic primaries this week, backed by New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani, whose campaign has emphasized affordability and improving conditions for working-class residents.
Democratic National Committee Chair Ken Martin has sought to ease tensions within the party since taking office in February 2025. However, Slotkin suggested a broader change in party leadership would be necessary to produce a meaningful shift.
