In light of some of the comments, feel like I should clarify:

My point is yes this seems like a clear violation of the 13A, but who knows what SCOTUS will do these days.

Radical SCOTUS reform is obvs essential, but I was just pointing out what could be done short-term to thwart its radicalism.

Tl;dr: The platform must be institutional reform, & the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over & over again & expecting different results:
🧵 Democrats need to stop promising sweeping policies like this w/o ever discussing <institutional> reform. There was <no way> any of this was going to pass the Senate. It's no wonder voters get disillusioned. You promise them magical 🦄 & can't deliver. The <platform> needs to be institutional reform
Biden promised affordable childcare, universal paid family leave, higher minimum wages, free community college, and more. Those policies would disproportionately benefit women, especially those who make too much to qualify for existing programs but not enough to easily afford paid support. 2/

Again, the needs to be & all the committees & commissions that want to Do A Popularism & focus on Kitchen Table Issues are engaged in a category mistake about What Democrats Must Do the next time they ever have power.
