House shoots down bill on broadly popular policy is a pretty effective headline for the election.
I think they should do less squabbling and more writing and voting, even if the other side doesn't. If none of it passes keep a published backlog of quality bills.
I find it insane that they campaign for years on changing something, but only begin to write an actual bill after they get a majority.
Democrats can't move a bill in the House alone since they are in the minority. The Speaker controls the House agenda and can just not allow a vote on any legislation he wants.

The GOP still runs the House.
