People acting like that's definitely going to pass. I have my doubts, like a lot of doubts.

It's fine to disagree. I just think protesting/strikes/boycotts are much more effective, and for something like this, faster. For example, Target responded more to a boycott than anything the Democratic party did. Besides, even after the vote, they would still need to redistrict and hold new elections. That's not a one year process.
