We need both chambers to be controlled by Dems or we will just face a gridlock again. If Republicans are still in control in the House, then Ryan won't bring any bill to the floor. If we don't have 70+ Dems in Senate, then any bill will just get filibustered. Why 70+ Dems? Because not all Dems stick together. Remember 2010.

But then again, when Obama was President and both chambers were controlled by Dems, they didn't do shit for us.

I guess the bottom line is the Bridge Act in exchange for meeting all of Trump and Republicans' demands. Republicans drew a line in the sand and the only play left is for Dems to concede or do nothing. We know their choice.
