The proof is that they only advocate these things when they can't pass them. When the Democrats control Congress, it suddenly isn't a priority again.

- hcknwscommenter 6y agoThe Dems haven't had a veto proof majority in House and Senate since the the 111th (2009 to 2011) and before that the 95th ( 1977 to 1979). I'm not going to go into the 95th too much because it was a very long time ago. Our country is very different. Obama spent basically all his political capital getting ObamaCare Dodd-Frank and CFPB passed. All of which were MASSIVE steps to dramatically increase access to health care and for the first time in decades bend the cost curve, dramatically reign in the banks, and give consumers actual protection from predatory big business. So, I don't really understand what you are talking about.
