Legislative progressivism isn't dead and gone — you might just have to look to the Midwest to see it.
Indeed, only hours after Michigan legislators voted to do away with right-to-work laws — a key labor initiative —to create a full, refundable tax credit for money paid toward union dues. This, too, appears likely to pass.
A similar phenomenon unfolded during the first two years of Biden’s presidential term, with Democrats holding a narrow majority but still proposing and enacting progressive legislation — and pushing the policy envelope in ways that would have seemed unimaginable a decade ago. To be sure, the deck is still stacked against Democrats. Republicans control 58 of the country’s legislative chambers to a mere 40 for Democrats. There are 22 GOP trifectas to just 17 for Democrats.
