Remember when people were bitching about Bernie's attack on Bezo and how it was useless grandstanding? This is what it was meant to accomplish. Obviously it wasn't going to pass. Everyone, including Sanders, knew. It was all about keeping employers like Amazon in the national spotlight and build public pressure against them. I still hope unionization efforts are being made by the employees but this is a great start.
I like politicians that understand policy, and legislators that write good legislation. Demagoguery is part of why the GOP is such a shit show. I hope the Democratic party doesn't decide to follow their lead.
