Congress repeatedly and unsuccessfully attempted to codify abortion rights. The only period where Democrats had full control of Congress, they were forced to choose between abortion rights and the ACA. Since abortion rights were protected by SCOTUS precedent, and millions of Americans were without healthcare, they chose the ACA.
This illustrates the importance of congressional elections. If more than 45% of Democrats voted in all elections, there would be a real chance for change. Make note of your election dates and vote.
