Are Democrats Really Just as Bad as The GOP?The GOP?

<p>Conservatives often respond to criticism of Trump and other Republicans with the line, “the Democrats are just as bad.” Sometimes they’ll even add that the Democrats used to protect the working class, but now they’re just “woke” extremists. This has been the narrative on right-wing media and they’re buying it hook, line, and sinker. The only problem is it simply isn’t true. Two recent news stories that largely went under the radar of most news outlets show exactly what I’m talking about.</p> <h2>Texas Republicans</h2> <p>The first example is <a href="https://www.texastribune.org/2023/06/16/texas-heat-wave-water-break-construction-workers/" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank">a bill</a> that Texas Gov. Greg Abbott recently signed into law that would prohibit cities from mandating construction workers get water breaks. Republicans passed the bill along party lines with nearly all Democrats in opposition. Austin and Dallas had passed laws mandating employers give construction workers at least a 10-minute water break every 4 hours. That’s the extreme wokeism the Republicans are up in arms about.</p> <p><a href="https://medium.com/rome-magazine/are-democrats-really-just-as-bad-as-the-gop-b0b301a8229e"><strong>Click Here</strong></a></p>
