Do they need to raise a point of order for each individual point or do they just need to raise one point of order to cut it all out?

Wait are Dems not going to call points of order on anything?

This means that Democrats will have to raise a point of order on this part of the bill. This would force a vote on the amendment that would require 60 votes. Republicans have 53 Senate seats, so it means they would need to pick off 7 Democrats for this.

Democrats wrestle whether to kill ban on trans care in Trump’s ‘Big, Beautiful Bill’
Democrats have an opportunity to protect transgender people’s health care. It also comes at a time when Republicans see anti-trans policies as a winning issue, Eric Garcia writes

Ok genuinely what do you want. Do you genuinely think Ted Cruz is going to do anything? Genuinely, you can say I’m playing at being helpless but what is the best case scenario here?

My senator is Ted fucking Cruz, every trans person in the state could call his office and he’d actively add more amendments stripping away our rights

If Dems let this pass I will not vote Democrat again.

Sadly I don’t get that liberty. I live in Austin, Texas. My voice means nothing

What’s going on the provision in the BBB that removes trans healthcare from the ACA and Medicaid?

The inability of democrats to actually look inward and to instead blame everyone else for their failures is the primary reason we’re going to lose our country to fascism. It’s never the policies, it’s always someone / something else.

I hate to say it but I think we lost. We can’t fight this.

Ok so what do we do? We have no recourse, no matter how many substacks we make we’re not gonna compete with legacy media. Fox News is still one of the biggest cable tv shows. The NYT is still one of the biggest news sources. So what’s the plan of action here?

Genuinely do not vote for any politician who is not vocally supportive of trans rights. Idc if they’re democrats, republicans, whoever. I will not vote for someone who will do nothing for me.
