John, Democrats in Congress who are unwilling to take bold stances on the most pressing issues in America could squander our current opportunity for progress.
Democrats hold control of the House, Senate, and White House for the first time in more than a decade. We must pass progressive legislation to address the many crises in this country.
Senate Democrats like Joe Manchin and Kyrsten Sinema, who suggest they want to keep the filibuster and hand our government to Republicans, are sacrificing our chance at:
Joe Biden has made some important progress on immigrant and environmental justice, but we need more from the White House and Congress. We can pass bold reforms through the Democratic Congress, but only if moderates like Joe Manchin are willing to face the realities of what needs to be done.
Republicans rejoiced in being obstacles to President Obama’s agenda and blocked legislation on voting rights, DC statehood, and so much more since Democrats took control of the House in 2018.
We need bold action from Senate Democrats, and that means leaving the filibuster behind.
We’re ready to push Congress to get this done.
In solidarity,
Justice Democrats
