Sorry but “blame Republicans” doesn’t fly this time. Dems chose to intervene. Dems chose to offer a “no sick leave” option. And Dems just put it through both houses.

Agreed. It's untenable. Dems are still the best choice (at this time) but the fact that they folded for the railroad corporate donors says everything you need to know about our government.

Oh no. it absolutely does. The entire GOP has the chance to vote it up too almost none did

Its just the usual trend of Dems being shit and he republicans being evil

But ya lets cry the Dems weren't strategic wizards like usual instead of addressing that the GOP loathes anything like this at all. You think they'd have given the workers sick days? We all know they wouldn't have.

And ya the Dems aren't left enough and corrupted to business interests. The solution to that isn't apologetics for the side even worse about it

Republicans are terrible, but that doesn't absolve Democrats of criticism. Dems are in charge and voted along with the GOP to throw workers under the bus.
