Bicameralism is a way of limiting the power of a single body and that body’s leadership and creating monopolistic power. It creates a need for some compromise. In a system like the French Sénat, this can slow down bad bills long enough to make them better. Two pairs of eyes can improve legislation.

There’s an argument to be made that upper houses should have a defined, limited role, instead of having one house to everything. But in the end it matters a lot less than having an actually representative democracy.

Please call for Schumer and Durbin to be removed from leadership. They have failed. I’ve voted for you twice and I won’t ever again if you can’t challenge the cowards who allowed this.

I can’t think of anyone in NM who can knock off Ben Ray anyway. Maybe Tim Keller, but that’s like replacing mayonnaise with miracle whip.
