Here's all you need to know about HR 1, which will be much-discussed in the coming days:

[Atticus]

---Democrats want to make it easy, simple and convenient to vote for all who are qualified and so inclined.

---Republicans are desperate to preserve their ability to win elections by cheating.

There'll be a lot more "discussion", but that's it in a nutshell.

Now you can take a walk, plan your gardening or read a book instead of trying to cut through the "earnest concern about election integrity" BS the Republicans will be spewing.

You're welcome.

1. Oh, there's a little more to know...HR1/SB1 is the only thing preventing GOP control for 10+ years

Without killing the filibuster, which is required to pass SB1, the GOP will gerrymander and rig the system so they can control all three branches of government for the next decade or longer.

Dems have about 10 months to pass HR1/SB1 before new district lines are drawn, which will flip at least 6 house seats before a single vote is cast. New voter suppression laws just passed in GA will result in Warnock losing his seat in 2022- voting rights laws would stop that.

The stakes are higher than you can imagine- no more politics as usual, no more “let’s hope we pick up more seats in 2022, then we can make big changes”

Dems must wield their power ruthlessly, and that includes against any of their members who would obstruct.

[Atticus]

2. Agree 100%. OP was meant simply to say there IS no reasonable "other side" to this

issue.

"Whatever it takes"!

[Hortensis]

3. Yes. This bill is so encompassing and important for reform that

it amounts to a litmus test for democratic and progressive ideals. And certainly for anyone claiming to speak for "the people" or against corruption.

5. what does president manchin think about this bill? and VP sinema nt

[WarGamer]

7. They will BOTH be problems with HR1

[Fiendish Thingy]

8. And their senate careers should be buried in unmarked graves should they obstruct the bill. Nt

[WarGamer]

10. Well... they will.

So prepare to run a Primary in WV and AZ with a progressive candidate.

[Mr.Bill]

9. It doesn't matter if we don't get rid of the filibuster.

And we know how Manchin feels about that.

[WarGamer]

6. And it's going to struggle

The Senate is a minefield and Barf, Goodhair, Handmaiden, Sleepy, Scalito and Roberts can overturn it in a days work.
