Democrats are pushing bills related to healthcare disparities, discrimination, wage gaps, and voting rights, despite a lack of support in the Republican-controlled Congress and from President Trump. New laws have been proposed in multiple states protecting people from discrimination based on race-based hair policies. Although passing these bills is unlikely, Democrats are continuing to introduce them to highlight their priorities and demonstrate their commitment to their constituents. Some of the proposed bills include the Paycheck Fairness Act, the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act, and the Expanding Medical Education Act. While acknowledging the challenges, Democratic lawmakers believe that introducing these bills is essential to show their base that they are actively working on issues that are important to them. Additionally, introducing legislation could be part of their campaign strategy for the midterm elections. Despite facing an uphill battle, Democrats are determined to keep fighting for these bills, inspired by the example set by civil rights activists like John Lewis. While Republicans are unlikely to support these bills, Democrats are using these proposals to get their opponents on the record and highlight their priorities for future campaigns.
