They can’t pass it. They don’t have majority.
Now watch as they win midterms and this gets forgotten completely.
I mean, why not introduce this bill during any of the 4 years Biden was in office? Because it would’ve been actual policy, and they don’t want that. This is political virtue signaling and nothing more.

It’s the usual and convenient excuse that Dems and their neoliberal fans love to use. As if not having a majority in either houses ever stopped Republicans! If the Dems are really serious as an opposition, which they aren’t, then they have to make popular choices-- the kitchen table issues. And not only that, actually impeach and imprison Trump. I think America has to go under a fully fledged dictatorship for Americans to actually know when they see one; kinda like Brazil imprisoning Bolsonaro for trying to overthrow the election, and they are not letting up at all. Because Brazil suffered from decades of dictatorship. Americans did not indict and arrest Trump because they are still arguing whether or not he’s a fascist.
You seem surprised that this is how losing trust works. If people don’t trust you will keep your promises, then it doesn’t matter what you promise them.
That being said, there are thing they can do that are not just virtue signalling.
Most people here it seems would rather be worse off so they can continue to bitch endlessly than have anything good happen.
Probably why half tell you voting is useless too even as primaries happen and Zoran is already in office doing things they should like.
That notwithstanding I’d like to see polling on the matter. Right or wrong I would suspect a majority would be against such a drastic increase making this a loser of an issue.

Because raising the minimum wage when the economy was on the verge of collapse from COVID shut downs would have been idiotic?
So according to this there is absolutely nothing the Dems can do right now that would make you happy.

A rational adult doesn’t get to be happy in 2026.
First day here?

Sounds about right.
