There's a short window in which to pass the broad LGBTQ civil rights bill. It means ending the filibuster, to which Sen. Kyrsten Sinema is adamantly opposed.
She's one of my senators and call and write her weekly. She somehow thinks she's serving the reds here, but I've asked her to just "come out" as the republican she is and to quit lying to us here... she's a DINO
Absolutely right on target and sorry I didn't ask Now President Biden in my interview with him what he would do if the Republican's in Senate tried to hold it up through filibuster.
Mark, just seeing this. You did a great job in the interview in getting this promise stated clearly. And that is now a question that needs to be posed and I'm hope reporters will ask the White House press secretary.
This is more about than Simema, or even Manchin. It's about the Democratic Party, and whether it will, as its values statements direct us, "put evidence behind its values statements", or not.
LGBT voters must stand up and demand that both Senators, and the Party, make happen what is very well within out power to do.
"Democrats may only have control of the House and Senate for two years, so there’s been much discussion among progressives and Democrats about ending the filibuster" So it's not about doing what the American people want, it's about doing what the Biden admin wants. Nice admission that your party has overplayed its hand, or you wouldn't be concerned about the mid-terms. So it's abolish the filibuster so we can jam everything down America's collective throat because you would otherwise never get it done. Ah, before you lose the House and Senate in 2022. What an immoral political party.
What Biden wants is what the American people want.Go look at the polls on everything there is to pass they are in the 70’s from the American people. No one is losing anything once the Dems show the middle class and the poor they are trying to help them and also the only party that is immoral is your disgusting what can you do for me and the rich Republican Party! Go away clown!!🤡🤡🤡🤡
Oh honey. After the ruinization of America and Democracy along with 500,000 Americans dead and domestic terrorism 100% supported by YOUR PARTY over the last 4 years you can save your pearl clutching act for someone who cares! The Dems showed this morning we can do what's RIGHT for the country without any support from the Trumpanzee Party. So go in the corner and dry those crocodile tears. The adults have work to do.
All about the money, she is corrupt to the bone. Look at how she votes, the wishes of her lobbying scum aka legalized bribery. How can a gay person vote against something that will help her people? Disgusting!
That kind of response and the overall, intentional avoidance would make me doubt someone was actually bi just because they said they were and more likely to think of them as 'bi until graduation' if they were at all and weren't just lying for some end, especially if willful misrepresentation was already brought up concerning other things. Of course, discussing that is just a can of worms people wouldn't dare to open--it's drama when it's people you know but a senator?
Ok, what kind of action are you suggesting ?! I’m all for getting rid of the filibuster! More so after last week- tired of the party of hypocrisy & “no” always working against the good of the country!
I’m already writing with PostcardsToVoters to proven Democratic voters for Democratic candidates. We obviously need the strongest bench possible at all levels of government!
So how do we get the AZ Senator to stop being so two-faced & hypocritical?!
You make it clear that if her obstinant refusal to do the one thing she can do to make it easier to implement Biden's agenda leads to the Democrats losing control of one or both houses of Congress in 2022 that she will face a serious primary challenge in 2024. Andthen make good on that threat if necessary.
She's one of my senators and call and write her weekly. She somehow thinks she's serving the reds here, but I've asked her to just "come out" as the republican she is and to quit lying to us here... she's a DINO
Glad that you write her weekly Dan. She needs to hear it.
Good for you! Thanks for your persistence!!

What if the majority is a TYRRANT?
What if the majority is racists?
It is Ok to HURT and HARM people because the majority think it?
That is MOB RULE. We have haf that TOO long in the USA.
The Constitution PROTECTS the minorities to keep them EQUAL.
So when the GOP ramrods its agenda through that is ALWAYS what America wants?
WAKE THE HELL UP!!!
Yep, “what would Mitch do?” Should be done ASAP!!!

By voting her out. At some point we have to take a stand. It will teach her and others a needed lesson, and we will be no worse off.
Sadly we need to get rid of the filibuster NOW!! Threatening to vote her our later doesn't serve the purpose.
