re: #38 Targetpractice

The reality is that votes like these needed to be happening last year, as a way of highlighting the ongoing obstruction and putting Sinema and Manchin on the spot again and again. But instead the path of least resistance was pursued and the result is that what might have been a bold strategy to make voters aware of just how it’s impossible for even a 51 vote majority to govern in D.C. is instead looking like a desperate scramble to “pass something” before the midterms.

As compared to the parts where they obstructed the funding bills?

They wouldn’t have faced any more pressure last year than they have this year.
