Reply to comment by BonusUpbeat in Democrat takes lead in 151st Pa. House seat; a win there gives Dems a nominal claim to House majority by Mijbr090490

This will help get it through though - it's one thing for a governor to say "I'd sign a legalization bill", it's another for them to say "The house has passed a bill, I want to sign it, but the one thing stopping it is the Senate Republicans refusing to bring it to a vote."

Hopefully there is enough pressure to get it brought up in the Senate.

Bold of you to assume that the Senate gives a fuck about the desires of their constituents.

Yes the GQP are just nihilists who want to block everything except tax breaks for the rich.

Or the Senate can bury it in some other piece of legislation.
