The house passed a ton of great bills in 2021-2022. There weren’t enough votes in the senate for any to become law though. We can blame the two openly corrupt Democrats for that, or we can blame the 50 corrupt Republicans.

Also the inflation reduction act did pass, and from the article:

“The program is more or less a direct result of funding provided by the 2022 Inflation Reduction Act, through which $15 million was earmarked for the purpose of exploring and implementing a simple, free, government-provided tax filing service.”

Yes and so are 97 other senators including Republicans like Lauren Boebert (who didn’t even disclose their stock trading) that exists beside Nancy Pelosi, including constant stock acts which are violated primarily by Republicans, so I don’t know what point you think you’re making.
