On October 20, the U.S. Senate was asked to vote on S2747, the “Freedom to Vote Act”. The lead sponsor is Minnesota Senator Amy Klobuchar. But the bill will not receive a vote today because Republican Senators filibustered it. Here is a description of the bill’s contents.
One wonders why supporters of the bill’s contents don’t break out the various provisions of the bill. A bill to outlaw partisan gerrymandering in U.S. House elections might conceivably pass. Partisan gerrymandering hurts Republicans in some states, just as it hurts Democrats in other states.
One also wonders why supporters of this bill insist on including campaign finance changes that injure minor parties, especially the Green Party. The bill abolishes primary season matching funds for presidential candidates. Many minor parties, including most recently the Green Party, have benefitted from that program.
USA regime –
ANTI-Democracy gerrymander oligarchs top to bottom — with lawless tyrant monarch bosses — SINCE 1789.
Brain dead media about gerrymander math.
—–
ABOLISH THE USA SENATE AND ELECTORAL COLLEGE.

“One wonders why supporters of the bill’s contents don’t break out the various provisions of the bill”
The game now is to stuff everything that the major party wants in an omnibus bill that can manage to get the barest majority possible to pass.
Both major parties play this game.
Why don’t the demoncrats stuff themselves into a volcano and die in a fire?
WZ – HOW SOON BEFORE O-N-E BILL PER 2 YEARS —
BUDGET + NEW + AMDTS + REPEALS ???
PERHAPS MERE 20,000 PAGES ???
ENACT THE BILL IN FIRST 30 DAYS – VACATION UNTIL SEP OF EVEN ELECTION YEARS.
That might be an improvement over all the other crazy crap they do now.
