Contact your rep if they’re in this list. More context at: https://www.erininthemorning.com/p/first-major-congressional-fight-over
Almost as if they’re pretty much the same.
To be clear, 81 dems voted to fund the military and defund trans kids.
A quote I really like; “with Democrats like these, who needs Republicans”. The party is a total joke right now.
More apt, IMO: Republicans fear their base. Democrats hate their base.
The dems and their staff, pundits, op-ed writers, etc know that the people don’t like war and that the hyper-focus on oppressing trans people, especially children, is weird and off-putting, there’s tons of polling on this. But try to tell them that and they’ll give you some west-wing brained horseshit about how actually it’s virtuous and necessary to betray your base and triangulate yourself 1 inch to the left of the republicans.
I don’t know if that’s better or worse than being called a Russian bot for pointing this out.
FFS of course Perez (my local rep) is in that list
I swear she’s going to flip parties soon and it won’t surprise me
Time to reach out yet again
I’m so fucking tired of Republicans running as Democrats. Recall votes need to be a thing.
WHAT IS GOING ON. Ugh.

It wouldn’t have passed if those 81 Dems had voted against it. Let’s not excuse the DNC for their complicity by pretending it was unavoidable.
