From Real Clear Politics:

With Biden, advocates for reform see a breakthrough. It means the issue wouldn’t be “pigeonholed to just policy nerds,” Shoshana Weissmann, a fellow at the conservative R Street Institute, told RCP. 

“Bringing that thinking to the campaign trail and seeing it not just as good policy but good and relatable messaging is a BIG DEAL, especially for a Democrat,” Weissmann wrote in an email. “A lot of the interest in reform is still on the right, but some on the left are championing it now. This is a big win, because it’s a no-brainer bipartisan issue.”
