That was quick…

Well..you know that I talked about the need for the dems to get their butts in gear over the next month and accomplish whatever they can before the repubs take control of the house…and they got off to a quick start today with the Respect for Marriage act that will pass the senate today then go back to the House for amendments and passage, then on to Biden’s desk by the end of the week….and this bill will protect same sex and interracial marriage on a federal level and no state law can supersede it so all of the red states that have been salivating for attacking same sex marriage and trying to make the LGBTQ community second class citizens is shit out of luck…but now it needs to go further to protect trans men and women from the discrimination that repubs across this country have been codifying into law….now the most urgent thing the dems needs to do is get the federal voting rights act passed to keep the repubs from suppressing dem votes across this country like we just did here in Michigan where we put expanded voting rights into our constitution so the repubs couldn’t screw with voting here…but in red states there have been hundreds and hundreds of new restrictions passed that need to be nullified by a federal standard…until that happens, our democracy is not safe and this needs to happen now…get after it dems….geez….
