If, like me, you want a healthcare system for all, immigration policies, and a plan to tackle climate change, housing needs, affordable college education, you need to vote in Congressional candidates such as those who won seats in 2016. They passed hundreds of bills tackling all these issues and almost none of these bills even reached the Senate floor because of Mitch McConnel. If the The Senate majority leader could be Elizabeth Warren, with Bernie Sanders help, These progressive bills will pass in the Senate. I do not think Biden would veto these bills. He is a compromiser and helped the ACA passed by the Senate with barely any Republican votes. He cares about the future, not his own ego, and listens to younger leaders, including kamala Harris and Cory Booker and others who are endorsing him. So vote down ticket and encourage everyone to defeat some of the Republicans in the Senate and House who will vote against every Progressive propasal. A Progressive Senate is needed and the turnout has to be huge to get that.
