Elizabeth Warren named the particular warm bodies those particular states need to fling at the U.S. Senate. “We [need to] get two more senators on the Democratic side, two senators who are willing to protect access to abortion and get rid of the filibuster so that we can pass it,” Warren. “John Fetterman, I’m looking at you in Pennsylvania.
