Other sponsors include Debbie Stabenow (Mich.), Barbara Boxer (Calif.), Dianne Feinstein (Calif.), Sheldon Whitehouse (R.I.) and Al Franken (Minn.).
When even Schumer and Feinstein are on your side, you're probably gonna win. We just need a push.

So basically they're pushing the envelope and by doing so giving Clinton political cover on the issue of healthcare reform. Nice.

Trump called for Hillary's assassination, AGAIN. Good fuck, he's a lunatic.
And he's now leading in recent poll averages in Ohio and Florida.
The polls have reflected a sagging of Clinton's numbers following her bout with pneumonia and stuff like that. Trump implying Clinton's assassination for the second time hasn't had time to be baked into a good poll yet.
I'd like to see how things look in a week or two.
How well would a licensing scheme work?
I mean, it's pretty much impossible to get anywhere in the US without a car, and driving isn't a universal right.
Besides, a licensing scheme would actually make sense under the wording of the Constitution, specifying the need for a "well-regulated militia".
Of course, this would be roundly hated by all those paranoid "soverign citizen" nuts who daydream Hollywood-style about enacting last stands and becoming anti-government resistance fighters movie heroes.
I stand by that, but I'm here to show you the opposite perspective by The Humanist Report, who thinks Warren is a sellout. I honestly have less respect for Humanist Report because of this.
If Trump wins, there's an excellent chance that he will win reelection, because that's what we do. I'll quote him: "I do not know where people think that, somehow, there'll be this giant standup moment where all the right minded people say no to Donald Trump AFTER we've elected him President."
He continued: "The time to stand up to Donald Trump is RIGHT NOW!"
also, what are your US Senate, US House, state-level statewide, state senate, and state house races?
