π₯ GOP INSANITY: This stack of bi-partisan signed bills first appeared during a press conference held by the Democratic Policy and Communications Committee
At the conference, Stabenow sounded off on McConnell and said he βturned the Senate into a legislative graveyard.β
Gesturing toward the stack during the conference, Stabenow said, βThese are the bills β one copy of each of the over 300 bills that have passed the House that are
gathering dust on Leader McConnellβs desk."
βIt's 5,595 pages,β she continued. βWeβre not including appropriations & other bills that will be passed. These are important bills that have come here to make a difference in peopleβs lives and Mitch McConnell has chosen not to act."
π₯ βItβs incredibly important to understand that 9 out of 10 of these bills, 90 percent of this stack, is bipartisan,β added Stabenow, who was joined at the conference by Reps. David Cicilline (D-R.I.), Ted Lieu (D-Calif.), Debbie Dingell (D-Mich.) and Matt Cartwright (D-Pa.).
Some of the bills featured in the stack include the Equality Act, the Violence Against Women Reauthorization Act and the Raise the Wage Act. #MAGA2020 right #TrumpTrain2020?
