It's happening, but do you really believe a bunch of nonprofit low income "woke" "DEI" loving hippies are going to lobby more effectively than billion dollar corporations - er, sorry, PEOPLE - will lobby? These people literally bankroll candidates for office to the tune of hundreds of millions of dollars and have hundreds of lawyers to pick apart any resistance.
Sure, lobby. Just understand we are just continuing the fight on principle, not because it will have any impact.
We can't give up, but we aren't going to win, short of a literal uprising and even then it's probably just going to remove the lipstick from this political pig, and the pretense of "for the people" will fall away.
