    There’s not any meaningful data to say whether it’s a partisan issue or not. Except for a very brief time at the beginning of Obama’s first term the Dems have not had control of both chambers of Congress. And those majorities were razor thin with people like Joe Lieberman and Joe Manchin. About the only data we have is during Trump’s term when the GOP controlled Congress for two years and did shit. Beyond that, you can only look at rhetoric (since the GOP also didn’t have sole control of Congress either for much of recent history outside 2016-2018).
