They ran on doing this; not on how this was impossible.
This is why we want candidates to campaign on these issues: Because people want these jobs done.
Voting matters. #VoteBlue 💙
I think it's really important to take a good look at who you're voting for in primaries, too. It's not being talked about that a lot of the people who got this done are a) younger and b) marginalized in one or more ways and c) aren't entrenched in establishment politics.
One of the reasons that things got done is because the people pushing those agendas aren't following the old "well we have to appeal to the right to our own detriment" Democrat defeatist stuff, and because they're young and because nobody had yet told them it couldn't be done, they just did it.
If you haven't yet seen the video of the young man responsible for the gig work reform bill being literally carried around on the shoulders of Uber drivers after the bill passed, go look it up. It's good stuff.
Yes, vote blue, because the Republican party is... *waves hands* but pay attention to who you're voting for. Show up at primaries. Don't just vote in the incumbent if they're not getting shit done.
Hell, run for shit, and if you do? Don't let 'em tell you that it can't be done.
I’d like to add:
Definitely vote in primaries because that’s how you push policy left.
Do not forget your local elections because they determine things like is your water potable, do you have drug and mental health diversion in your court system, and the quality of local school boards.
State and local elections have a massive effect on your personal quality of life.
