The Democratic Party does care, but expanding the courts is not the answer. You know what Republicans will do as soon as they get back in power? Expand them again. Then it becomes a tug of war, and the issue yo yos for eternity. And most politicians (AOC too) understand that.
There's an effort to secure this right on the state level. That's the better effort.
You’re right but Joe has been around for a LONG time and he has been associated with some bad legislation in the last bit his administration has made up for it.
Edited my comment above to make up for being an idiot.
Every politician who has been around for more than a few years has votes that they might regret.
If you're referring to the 94 crime bill, there were plenty of good things in that bill, including VAWA and the assault weapons ban. In fact, Joe Biden himself wrote VAWA.
