Even though we’ve only had a few state primaries, we already know the definitive list of the Republican and Democratic candidates in all 34 US Senate Races of The 2022 Midterms.

  • This is not a joke. The MOST important vote that any Senator makes is the vote for “The Majority Leader”. The Majority Leader CONTROLS virtually EVERYTHING that happens in The US Senate.
  • If The Majority Leader doesn’t want to bring a women’s reproductive choice bill or a climate bill or a legalization of marijuana bill up for a vote . . . it won’t be brought up for a vote. End of story.
  • If The Majority Leader doesn’t want to bring a Supreme Court nomination up for a vote, or even for hearings . . . it won’t be brought up for a vote. End of story.
  • The Majority Leader chooses The Chairperson for EVERY Committee
  • The Majority Leader even decides on when and for how long The Senate meets.

1.MITCH McCONNELL won’t bring a bill to restore Women’s Reproductive Choice up for a vote in The Senate. CHUCK SCHUMER will.

2. MITCH McCONNELL won’t bring a climate/renewable energy jobs bill up for a vote. CHUCK SCHUMER will.

3. MITCH McCONNELL won’t bring a bill to decriminalize marijuana across the country, or to expunge

4. MITCH McCONNELL won’t bring a Background Checks bill up for a vote. CHUCK SCHUMER will.
