“control” is a little bit misleading… it’s true the Rs have a majority but you can’t pass a bill into law unless you have enough votes (60) to break a filibuster in the Senate. Personally I’d like to see the filibuster go away (simple majority) as the Ds stated last year (before the elections and when they though they’d have the majority) they would abolish the filibuster and push through the socialist agenda they had in tap. Time for FAFO to be implemented by the Rs if the Ds keep voting block NO on everything…
