The next time we have a trifecta in DC, we better have the biggest reconciliation bill of all time!! [View all]

The Repugs have managed to put all of their priorities in one bill. When we had all 3 levers of powers, we piece-mealed everything...using reconciliation for only things like health care. We must correct this mess and I want us to put all Dem priorities in one big, mega, monstrous bill if win back control of Congress and the WH in 2028! No freaking excuses this time!
