    The BBC should settle down lol, it didn’t backfire. Some group of aides took 900 calls, probably tallied it up on a few sticky notes, and passed them to a rep who tossed it in a bin.

    1. it unanimously passed committee (!!!)

    2. it’s practically certain to pass the house

    3. it’s practically certain to pass the senate

    4. it’s guaranteed to be signed by biden

      Sounds like a backfire to me. Did you read the article? The lobbying was from TikTok to prevent the bill from passing, but it sounds like it just made the reps more committed to passing it.
