Wouldn’t the $2T American Jobs Plan be a good place to include raising the minimum wage to $15/hr? Did we just sort of drop that...? Is it one of those “We’ll get back to it later” things that goes into a political black hole and never makes its way out? epi.org/publication/raising-…

Called the filibuster, and nothing will pass that GOP doesn't approve, negotiation.

To pass #RaiseTheWage the corporate Democrats would have to stop their game of calling for a popular policy, then one member of the team blocks it (@SenSchumer @SpeakerPelosi @Sen_JoeManchin @SenatorSinema parliamentarian) If @POTUS allowed it, it would pass.

We need to cover that political black hole ... and not let anything fall down there ... we need to keep bringing it up over and over again until it's a done deal!

#ForceTheVote protests contrasted with the #FraudSquad's votes.

I've come to the conclusion that Joe himself is senile enough to be malleable in his positions. The problem is the corporate ghouls he's surrounded himself with. They won't allow any genuinely progressive policy through.

I BELIEVE THAT I PERSONALLY CAN DO SOMETHING TO CHANGE THIS FOR THE BETTER 😃🤪 .....😐 Seriously, how much of my life force would I personally need to dedicate to changing the trends of this entire country? 😐

I’m in Minneapolis today to demand justice for Daunte Wright and George Floyd! I will be joined by the Wright and Floyd families, and co-counsel @Jeff_Storms, at a 12PM CT news conference at the Hennepin County Courthouse.

Hmmm...don’t know who “we” is cuz the majority of the “we” people wanted 3 finnahs / hour and it is an old, white male democrat that’s preventing that from happening.

No it wouldn’t necessarily at all. More people would have money to spend.
