      What about a new article in the constitution?

      I guess most will find this completely overkill but access to free information should be a right everybody has and no party should be able to remove that.

      I understand amending the constitution of any country should be done very carefully but keeping century old constitutions is completely dumb imo. Some articles are still relevant today others are not or would seriously benefit in being updated.

        If we can fix some gerrymanders it’ll go a long way also

        Like the shitshow that is the maps in WI, which will head to the (now) liberal controlled state Supreme Court.

        And we need to demolish lobbying. The things we could accomplish if those useless and sleazy detriments to society were all put out of their jobs permanently.

      Takes 60 votes in the US Senate to beat the filibuster. Republicans will not provide the 9 votes needed.
