Did ANY Democratic elected official do a thing about that?

Did we even care about this bill in 2011? Enough to do more than post about it, that is.


Anyone recognize anyone else on the list who is a Democrat?

Has any Democrat worked to repeal the Hyde Amendment?



Taking shots at Republicans is easy enough and often even fun, but surely politics has to be about issues, not only Parties.

Conservative south west cook county, on the border of DuPage county. I vote for him in the general, but I try during the primaries to get someone else. :hi:

2. I totally understand your position, but, by "any Democrat," I meant the professionals.
It's hard for people like you and me to unseat an incumbent in a primary under any circumstances, but especially if the DNC is supporting him.
