Why are Senate Democrats giving McConnell veto power over the Democratic agenda?
FIRST: Mitch McConnell bragged that, “100% of our focus is on stopping this new administration.”
THEN: He admitted ON VIDEO that the state he represents is going to get a huge influx of relief money from the Democrats’ American Rescue Plan. And he kindly added that not a single Republican voted for it! Why not, Mitch?
It’s clear: Mitch McConnell has no interest in helping the working people of this country. So, why are Senate Democrats giving McConnell veto power over our popular and urgent agenda?
NOW: Senate Democrats must immediately end the filibuster and take power away from McConnell’s minority. It’s the only way that we can pass a big, bold, transformative agenda for economic, social, racial, and environmental justice. It’s the only way that we can DELIVER for the people.

Republicans have already blocked the creation of a January 6 Commission to investigate the deadly insurrection. They did it to protect fellow Republicans like Ted Cruz and Donald Trump. McConnell also blocked the For The People Act, a historic voting rights bill that we need ASAP. They did that so state legislatures across the country can keep passing dangerous voter suppression laws.
Some critical legislation may not even get a vote in the Senate because of the filibuster! The House has passed bills like the Equality Act, gun safety legislation, the PRO Act, the DREAM Act, D.C. Statehood, and so much more that is stuck in the Senate because Democrats won’t end the filibuster.
It’s time that we take power away from Mitch McConnell: Chip in $3 or whatever you can today to fuel Pramila’s fight to end the filibuster and deliver transformative change in this country.
