Basically, all the progressive progress is coming in spite of Congress and the Executive Branch. There was no support for Equal Rights for LBGTs in either group either because of political calculation or because they honestly hate the rainbows. Legalization has been fought tooth and nail by the both branches as well. The current racial issues were not tackled when they could have been either.

We're on our own- our "Leaders" are desperately enforcing status quo...and we don't have time for it. The climate change clock is ticking, and the answer (if it's not too late) is to dismantle the current system. They're not going to want to do that.
