I'm old. I remember when both parties had leaders, even statesmen, who could bust heads when needed. For ME, that time was over the John Lewis Voting Rights Bill (I don't recall it's name) and other protections for voters and voting. And Dems didn't even try as far as I can see. And I think that may have spelled the death knell of democracy and two-party politics in fact as well as fiction. I do hope I'm wrong but I see no signs of it.
The John R. Lewis Voting Rights Advance┬нment Act of 2021 is recent legislation. It passed the House on August 24, 2021 in a straight party-line vote. The Senate voted 50-49 to pass the bill, falling well short of the 60 votes needed to break the filibuster.
What makes you think they are ignoring the fix we are in? Because they don't act like Republicans? Don't normalize the GOP.
