[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It sounds like it is going to be most feasible for the GOP to run this through in the Lame Duck session.

If Biden wins and the Senate turns, then all should make it clear that if the GOP forces this through in the Lame Duck session, that the Democrats will:

1) remove the filibuster
2) amend 28 US 1 to allow for up 15 justices on the supreme court;
3) pass statehood for DC and PR (if they want it)
4) Pass universal healthcare (since the ACA is effectively dead anyhow)
[b]5) pass legislation overturning Citizens United[/b]
6) Pass legislation standardizing electronic voting and mail in voting standards
7) tighten all of the ethics loopholes the Trump administration has exploited

I am sure there is more, and some of this should happen anyhow, but Mitch can try to get his one SCOTUS appointment through at this juncture, but the will of the people will have spoken, loudly and serious reform and modernizing will need to happen.[/quote] u

Give DC 2 voting senators!!![/quote]

And Puerto Rico![/quote]

Every Democrat should get their personal senator. Paid for by taxing the rich.[/quote]

Why should California, that has 40 million people, have the same number of senators as Wyoming, that has fewer people than DC (700,000)?

In fact, the population of LA is the same as about 12 states in the midwest,combined. The Dakotas were admitted as two states specifically for this reason. Either break up Calirfornia into several states, consolidate a lot of the midwest, or reform the system, but is tilts the Senate and the EC in ridiculous ways.[/quote]

How does #5 work? Congress can overturn a SCOTUS ruling?
