    Ha, Democrats can’t even pass higher minimum wage with a house majority. Even when it was Biden’s platform.

    Not one standalone bill. They had two years of a majority.

    There will be no universal healthcare in the USA until Amazon and Meta decide that we should have universal healthcare.
