I wouldn't be getting my hopes up.

If there's one thing watching US politics, from Europe these last +20 years, has taught me, then it's this:

Even with a solid majority, the house and senate democrats will be too full of individual self-interests too do anything of the sort.

The democrats need something like the heritage foundation to effectively herd them into a unified collaborating political party.

It's not individual self-interests, it's pretty blatant corruption to protect their donors, the US oligarchs. Any real investigation into republicans will implicate "democrat" billionaires as well.
