Update: A special thanks to Soquel by the Creek

You can find an updated list with 82 names openly published on an official House of Representatives web site. These members of Congress are part of the Congressional Progressive Caucus.

http://cpc.grijalva.house.gov/index.cfm?ContentID=166&ParentID=0&SectionID=4&SectionTree=4&lnk=b&ItemID=164

The Congressional Progressive Caucus worked openly with the Democratic Socialists of America until 1999.

My Congressman, Sam Farr, is a member. You might also find it interesting that his campaigns are financed almost exclusively by out-of-state public-employee unions and labor unions. I haven’t yet looks, but I expect that the other members of the Progressive Caucus have similar ties.

Look at the list of the top political donors.

Nearly all the organizations associated with public-employee or labor unions give almost exclusively to Democrats (95%+).
