Reminder that 2 years ago getting rid of it unanimously passed the senate, but not the house, so we're still stuck with it. It's an excellent example to point to about how both parties never get anything actually beneficial done no matter how popular it is, but somehow manage to give trillions to Israel no problem.

I want to point out that it only passed the Senate because nobody knew what they were voting for and nobody bothered to block it. After they found out what the bill actually was a bunch of Senators came out against it, after they had already passed it.
