@StacyDVanDeveer @jonallendc Maybe not. (Closest districts maybe, like, Golden and Spanberger?) But majority support is a different question from “Will this hurt any Democrat?” There’s no downside to leaving it out at this point. There is *potential* downside to leaving it in. And it’s not becoming law. — PolitiTweet.org

@Bencjacobs Yes. — PolitiTweet.org
Matt Fuller @MEPFuller
@Robillard Even if I accepted that premise — which I think overstates the popularity and potential harm (literally no downside to pulling it now!) — vote for it on a standalone bill then. They’re just giving Republicans an excuse to vote against Covid relief. — PolitiTweet.org

This is an incredible and deeply reported profile that shows a person who has been searching for fulfillment — CrossFit, religion, Facebook, QAnon — and, for the time being, has found it in performative lib owning. https://t.co/r7MhGIy6cX — PolitiTweet.org

@Michaelander45 I mean, you can pass it in the House as a separate bill if you think it’s such great politics. My argument is that you *could* jeopardize some free bipartisan support on this bill. — PolitiTweet.org
Matt Fuller @MEPFuller
I’m sympathetic to the argument that a $15 minimum wage is popular, and keeping it in the bill might not lose you a single member — D or R — and the GOP might not flip a single vote on this issue in any district. But what’s the downside to stripping it if it’s already toast? — PolitiTweet.org

@TheOxfordCommie I mean, if the Parliamentarian had ruled that it could be in the reconciliation bill, they might have. You’re now just arguing to do it to prove a political point. I’m saying there are plenty of political points *not* to do it, if it can’t be in the bill anyway. — PolitiTweet.org
Matt Fuller @MEPFuller
A lot of people seem angry with me over the $15 minimum wage. Folks, I am neither the Senate Parliamentarian, nor Joe Manchin. — PolitiTweet.org
Matt Fuller @MEPFuller
@evolgress Well, it’s gone anyway because of the Parliamentarian. So making it a bipartisan vote might help with public support and, you know, politics. — PolitiTweet.org
Matt Fuller @MEPFuller
@TheOxfordCommie Your mistake is assuming the bill would’ve passed with 51. Manchin seemed to have drawn a hard line. They probably would’ve had to strip it anyway. — PolitiTweet.org
Matt Fuller @MEPFuller
Even if House Democrats could pass the Covid relief bill with a $15 minimum wage — which I’m still not sure about — there’s another reason you might still strip it: Republicans. I can imagine some GOP members joining Democrats on this bill if that provision is gone. — PolitiTweet.org
Matt Fuller @MEPFuller
@varadmehta I’ve had some doubts, yes. But if it’s stripped, I don’t see any problem at all. — PolitiTweet.org
Matt Fuller @MEPFuller
So are House Democrats gonna strip the $15 minimum wage from their Covid relief bill, or are they gonna pass it as is to personally prove to me that they had the votes all along? Just to, you know, show me up. — PolitiTweet.org

My first question is “Where is the Senate Parliamentarian?” and my second question is “Does it seem more or less democratic to you that we let a single, unelected person have this much power over law instead of just eliminating the 60-vote majority in the Senate?” — PolitiTweet.org
