Today was an important day to be paying attention. In many ways, we seem to be going backward. Only our votes can ultimately change that. Senate Republicans blocked a measure that would have created a federal right to contraception access today. That seems like it should have been noncontroversial. It’s 2024. But it was not. It failed to pass, with Republicans saying the legislation was both unnecessary and government overreach. I suppose it’s only unnecessary if you don’t care about the right to contraception going the same way as the right to get an abortion.
Bait implies tricking them into going for something they shouldn’t. But the GOP should want this, everyone should want this. This was blatantly pulling the mask off. Let’s see if anyone listens.

But the Democrats wanted to pull the mask off the Republicans, exposing them going into election season. That was the trick, hence the bait.
