You may fight and so may some Republicans in Congress but the reality is that the dems hold the majority and it will pass maybe with slight mods but it will pass.

My hope is there is enough that the dems will object to as well..

I think the senate doesn’t understand the mood in the country.

This bill is not just opposed by people normally associated with extremes. In my little neighborhood we have a distinct cross-section of Americans- a “redneck” single man in his 40’s..a long-term-relationship lesbian couple, a family from Puerto Rico, a local liberal activist, a lovely woman from Serbia (going through all the LEGAL motions) and assorted others. We talk, we have cookouts, watch each other’s dogs and kids. EVERY single one of them is angry and worried about this- and does not want this bill passed.

These are not rabid, right-wing ideologues..they are ordinary Americans..and at least one who is hoping to become one.
