What Biden Has Done


?s=20&t=835WcSubEKMg4kfUSs-vHg

For a "Do Nothing" Presidency and Congress, we've actually gotten an impressive amount done legislatively in just 18 months.

We could reasonably add a half dozen more pieces of major legislation and dozens of judges to this list by the end of the year.

Joe has done amazingly well with a basically tied Congress. More Democrats means more progress.

If Mitch McConnell were the Senate Majority Leader, Joe Biden’s accomplishments would be few. Instead they are considerable.

Have you really thought this through?

Hopefully we pick up some Senate seats and hold the House and the outliers in our Senate caucus will become less relevant.

I think it's important that we promote whatever lists we have available, rather that run down our president and his cabinet.

Dems need to be touting the admin's achievements & Shouting the GOP as the traitorous far right fascist party.

Butch Lewis Emergency Pension Plan Relief Act, signed into law by the president in March of '21.

It allows loans from the government to help keep troubled pension plans afloat.

This one may just prevent me from having to eat cat food when I retire in 6 years.
