The executive branch (Biden) would have expanded the courts. Manchin and Simena refused to cast the needed votes to make it work. It’s up to us to elect more Democrats so we don’t have to rely on our worst ones to do the right thing.
Look at what a mess the House has been when the Republicans have had a handful of votes to spare. Dems have no spare votes, and they’ve still managed to get a lot done. Put a few more Democrats in the Senate, and then we don’t have to cater to the quasi-conservative senators in the party.
