I don’t have a link, but Indivisible has a great analysis regarding Manchin and SB1. Strongly recommend looking at it.

I use an app: 5 Calls, that follows specific legislation, identifies the appropriate legislative representatives to contact and includes talking points. It really makes action EASY. I have made 5 calls a week for 4.5 years. All transparency, I’ve missed a couple weeks, but made a LOT of calls. Great App!

H1/S1 doesn’t address Georgia type of laws post election legislature authority, any another laws coming up
Aruna Bhuta
01:11:57
Didn’t Republicans wave filibuster for Supreme Court justice confirmation?
Dorene Carrel
01:12:33
I totally agree with Steve!
Robert Brown
01:12:57
Yes, Aruna. They did, after Democrats did for all lower court offices.
jeff eidsness - he/him Kitsap County
01:13:24
How about challenging Dems to fight for votes? to actually do something to encourage the voters to step up?
Robert Brown
01:15:32
Jeff, I agree that we have to give them something to vote for, not against. That’s why the infrastructure bill seems so important to me now. I agree with Rachel Maddow that Democrats need to go it alone because Republicans are only for blocking Biden (as told by McConnell). The other thing we need to do is get Democrats to win in Red rural states.
jeff eidsness - he/him Kitsap County
01:15:51
Too bad Murray and Cantwell are powerless to do anything and we have to carry all the water.
Robert Brown
01:16:27
They’re not powerless. They are kind of corporate types.
jeff eidsness - he/him Kitsap County
01:16:40
like I said
Dorene Carrel
01:17:58
Good Cincy -- Would love to have Stacy join us!
David Gordon
01:18:15
yes, bring Cindy!
jeff eidsness - he/him Kitsap County
01:18:22
All i'm trying to say (perhaps more snarky than required, apologies) is that Biden could to a lot to help Stacey Abrams and the rest of us convince folks to go to the polls.
