  • Against Civil Rights legislation including voting rights, 
  • Against Abortion Rights, 
  • Against Immigrants Rights.
  • For Presidential Immunity; putting the President above the law.
  • Supreme Court rulings have a tremendous effect on the citizens of this country.
  • PLUS: The Senate works with the House to pass budgets, legislation, and declare War (which the current Republicans never did; they just allow Trump to do what he wants.)
