seems odd to me considering that just one Senator is stopping it from getting passed. No pressure of any kind being exerted on Manchin that I can tell. Seems like our Senators have just given up on Biden's agenda.

Fingers crossed that we flip a couple of Senate seat in Nov. Maybe Grassley's and one more.

We cant do a thing even with 60 senators without the house.

(53,764 posts)5. Of course. On the flip side, repubs can't do a thing either...
without the Senate if they win the House. And even then Joe Biden still has his veto.

cards as he is needed for a majority. Elect more Democrats and that won't be the case which is why we need all hands on deck for the Midterms.
