Every time you see someone powerful acting like a craven coward in the face of this authoritarian menace, let it stiffen your own spine. We are all we've got.

Laws are only a suggestion if there's no enforcement.

@schumer.senate.gov We want Dems to show us a backbone. The People are begging you all to do something! This is not how you stand up. And I promise you that I will not forget your actions. - signed a NY voter.

A YES on cloture is a YES for the bill.

Do not let anyone play games with you.

I think some in the Senate have convinced themselves that the backlash to folding will be limited to “the left” and therefore ignorable.

Those people are deeply and profoundly misreading the moment and the stakes.

Virtually every swing district House Dem walked the plank to vote NO for a reason.

When I was a Hill staffer in 2009, a Dem trifecta was trying to pass universal healthcare. In response, Senate GOP released a memo detailing all of the tactics they in the minority could use to delay the effort as much as possible. I'm recirculating that 2009 GOP memo here. Take inspiration from it.
