Jack, the Senate voted Wednesday on the Women's Health Protection Act, which would codify Roe v. Wade. Every Democrat voted for it. Except one.
A Republican filibuster meant that the bill was never going to become law, but it was an important symbolic move to support Americans reeling from the shocking Supreme Court opinion that leaked last week. It was a clear statement as to where senators stood on a person's right to make their own decisions for their own body. Even that was too much for Joe Manchin.
I am so sick and tired of this one senator standing in the way of progress.
From our earliest days, Daily Kos's motto has been simple: More and better Democrats. We need to break the grip Joe Manchin has on the Democratic agenda—and we can do that permanently in 2022 by electing more Democrats.
Republicans are vulnerable in several key states on the ballot next year. That's why I'm asking you to chip in $1 to each of these three Senate Democratic nominee funds and Daily Kos-endorsed Cheri Beasley to help expand our Senate majority.
