Also, 2010 was the last time Dems controlled both houses, so you're wrong on that count as well.
why would you lie about something that's a well documented fact?
So according to your own links, Democrats controlled the House and Republicans controlled the Senate after the 2020 election. And what's your point? Anything as contentious as women's rights can be passed by one chamber and vetoed by the other chamber. They still don't have any authority to overrule SCOTUS, and they can't pass something without support from both chambers.
As I said before, your argument has no weight. If this were an easy thing to do, Republicans also could have passed a bill completely eliminating women's rights in the past when they had full control of both houses and the presidency. Funny how they didn't do that.
🤨
Need 60 votes to truly control the senate.

No that's how the senate works. Filibuster.
Democrats could have used their senate majority to eliminate the filibuster. You evidently have infantile understanding of how your senate works.
