Not knowing US constitutional law, it seems to me the SCOTUS decision might mean that the Dems missed an opportunity when they had the house

That it’s a federal matter seems legally predictable/natural to me, and that it then falls to congress to enforce then also seems natural.

What am I missing on that?

Otherwise, what would the Dems have had to lose by passing an act when they had the house? The 14th was right there.

    I want the party to have the same cohesion they demand from the voters.

        I’m talking about the party’s expectations of its voters versus its elected.

        You’re trying to divert to Biden because you can’t defend Senate Democrats’ reliance on the filibuster as an excuse when they break campaign promises.

          What “expectations of its voters” are you talking about? We get to vote however we want
