Is it really though? I assumed it was 100% for show, to have something they can use in campaign ads. I see 0% probability of it coming to the senate. So the House is just passing a bunch of laws that look good on their resume.
- tyre 6y agoEven if Democrats win the two GA senate seats and are therefore the majority (50 + VP), this will not pass. As a country, we are not there yet. 2022 Senate races are far too important to be trying to get ahead of where the country is. You lose suburban moms.

- free_rms 6y agoThe country is actually way ahead of the politicians on this stuff though. Red states are getting there ahead of blue politicians. I think it's more of a generational thing.
