It will take courage for Biden to do something not exactly how the rules go. I hope he does.

What concerns me is if we collectively do what we during an Obamas time in the WH.
We rested, thinking "he had it all under control". No, he needed us and our activism.
No sleeping and resting this time for all of us.

Appoint acting cabinet members or folks that have already gone through senate confirmation in the past - like Sally Yates, Julian Castro, Susan Rice etc....

To be eligible as an acting head. It wouldn’t help if that person served five or ten years ago.

We have had 10 painful years of no legislation!

I will be very hard on our country to go through this again!
