Sanders delegates push back at agreements prohibiting convention dissent: 'It’s ridiculous'
By Paul Steinhauser | Fox News
 

Biden campaign senior Symone Sanders discusses campaigning during the coronavirus pandemic on ‘The Daily Briefing.’

Sen. Bernie Sanders' political team – in an apparent bid for party unity – is asking supporters chosen to represent the former presidential candidate at the Democratic convention to sign agreements preventing them from criticizing Democratic Party leaders or other 2020 contenders either in person or on social media during this summer’s confab.

And that’s not sitting well with some Sanders supporters who’ve received or heard about the agreements.
 
“I think these restrictions are unreasonable and I don’t think it’s the way they’re going to get unity,” said a 2016 Sanders delegate who’s been picked to represent the populist senator at the August convention in Milwaukee, Wis.
