Democrats Chances Of Beating Gop For Control Of Congress After Roe Ruling

Last Friday, the Court’s conservative majority reversed decades of precedent with its controversial abortion ruling, eliminating a right that had been protected by federal law for nearly five decades under Roe. While women can still access abortion in a number of blue states, many conservative-led states moved rapidly to ban or severely restrict abortions. Meanwhile, some conservatives are calling for even greater restrictions, including pushing for a national ban on abortions or prosecuting women who travel across state lines to get the procedure....

Democrats Round On Filibuster After 15 Minimum Wage Blow

Elizabeth MacDonough, the nonpartisan Senate parliamentarian, said including the $15 minimum wage proposal in the bill would violate the Byrd Rule—a precedent that bars items not directly related to the budget from being included in reconciliation bills. President Biden has since signaled that he will not go against the judgment of the unelected advisor, meaning the $15 minimum wage will have to be passed in a separate bill, should the White House still pursue the policy....

Democrats Set Sights On Holding Congress In 2022 As Fundraising Push Launched

The Democrats secured a clean sweep at the last election, holding on to the House of Representatives while securing the Senate and the White House. However, the Senate control is tight—with the chamber split 50/50 and the Democrats’ majority facilitated by Vice President Kamala Harris’ power to cast tie-breaking votes. With that in mind, Democrats are wary of the potential for the GOP to flip the upper chamber in 2022 when 34 seats will be contested—14 Democrat-held and 20 held by the GOP....
