Unfortunately, SineManchin hold the key to our democracy.

If they won’t agree to a carve out on the filibuster on voting rights, the ball game ends.
They must be pressured with everything possible to get them there.
Pull out every stop.

We allowed him to push this to the brink, and Senator Whitehouse believes big business, facing huge losses, as predicted applied pressure from the other side.
