Did you get EVERYTHING we wanted? No.

Did we get most of what we wanted? Yes.

Sadly, some folk seem to expect that one party should get everything or else settle for nothing.

I just don’t understand such reductionist logic.

Proposing health coverage is not the fault of democrats. Let’s keep that in mind.
