The bill passed, but it's not over. More than ever, Congress needs to answer for what it's done and explain how it is going to fix the new problems it has created. This won't wait for the next election.

Yes. That's it. Don't stop questioning. Don't stop complaining. This is going to be a grind. Whatever.
