- Not done: Please clarify where the information should be implemented in the article. Also, the Rolling Stone article, for example, does not state that she joined the Squad, but only intends to do so if elected. The latter is already covered in the article. Throast {{ping}} me!

- Rashida Tlaib appears to have confirmed that Ramirez is a part of the Squad in a fundraising email: https://twitter.com/TOteroCA/status/1773220581724324145 94.173.75.153 (talk) 01:06, 29 March 2024 (UTC)
"Political positions" section
[edit]Many of the political organization in the US have a "political positions" section. Even though the Squad is not a massive political entity, they still share some common political views. Because of this, I've added a political positions section to this page. I have aimed for neutral positioning, and followed Wikipedia's rules about BOP. I am sure I have missed a few common political views, so add them if you see them necessary. Uncodeable (talk) 15:05, 29 October 2023 (UTC)
Is Wikipedia trying to still remain neutral?
[edit]This run-down of The Squad is incredibly politically charged and multiple people I have spoken with agree. 108.50.240.215 (talk) 21:20, 13 August 2024 (UTC)
