In reply to the discussion: This message was self-deleted by its author [View all]When will we (Dems) stop shooting ourselves in the foot. Yes, all those things are included in the proposed legislation from recent reports.
That's not nothing.
What is nothing is allowing Republicans and the media to shape the narrative. We're living in a hyper-hostile political environment, a scenario where Dems are tying to govern, pass legislation while beating back Republican attempts to destroy EVERYTHING.
Pelosi is on now: free Pre-K, child tax credits extended, home health care, expanding the ACA for Medicaid patients (read earlier it would affect 7 million Americans), a half trillion dedicated to Climate Change. And infrastructure.
Is it as big and expansive as so many had hoped? No.
But this ain't nothing!
The bill, the actual text, is up and out for review. We're on the tarmac now, preparing for lift off.
