I'm still mad as hell
Here's what I firmly believe: we are going to end the silent, secret filibuster – not just for a few votes, but forever. And when we do, progressives are going to do a big favor for our democracy. We're going to protect and expand voting rights.
For all the words we've shared on this topic, words alone aren't going to win this coming election or push back the authoritarianism rising in pockets of our country.
People are what matters. People like us. People standing up and demanding change.
We've suffered setbacks, true. I'm still mad as hell that filibuster obstruction has stood in the way of critical voting rights and protections, and I know you're also frustrated.
But that leaves us with two choices: either throw up our hands, or dig in and fight for the future and for our democracy.
I'm not giving up, and I know you won't, either.
