So the House passed them

[angrychair]

The George Floyd Justice in Policing Act, HR7120 and the For the People Act, HR1, have passed the House to only go die in the Senate.
As long as the filibuster exist the ability for the Senate to pass bills on to the WH is extremely unlikely.

Despite all the positive outcomes so far no one should delude themselves into thinking that our democracy is not hanging by a thread and the risk of losing our democracy grows with each passing day.

1. Every day is a good day to contact our Senators to end the filiblister

2. All because of the unconstitutional filibuster. What ever happened to the majority's right to

change Senate rules? What does Klobuchar's chairmanship of the Senate Rules Committee mean re Senate rules?

Why are these damn rules more important than the nation's people?

4. A majority doesn't support changing the rules.

That’s the issue

[PoliticAverse]

5. The majority can change the rules _at any time_. Harry Reid did it to get Obama's nominations past

blocking Republicans and Mitch McConnell did it to get a Supreme Court nomination in.

7. Yes, but a majority is 51 votes and there are not currently 51 votes

3. This is a huge campaign promise that needs to get through the Senate.

Democrats must do everything to make it happen.

6. Well they just bailed on the $15/hour promise and the checks again promise. n/t

8. Can

we the people do anything, we know that the GOP is hellbent to obstruct President Biden's agenda.

9. Republicans don't care about people

The current covid relief package has significant bipartisan support among voters but Republicans are still doing everything they can to slow or stop it.
