  Little issues should not be ignored because there exists a big other issue. There will always be a bigger issue, so with that reasoning, the right time to do something about the little issue, would be never.

  Working on smaller issues also doesn’t stop anyone from working on the bigger issues, processes like this can happen in parallel.

    They’re senators. They can literally call up the FTC (who should be investigating this) and complain. They can increase the FTCs budget as well. They can subpoena the head of Ticketmaster and ask them questions directly.

      They can also introduce legislation, their main duty, which they have done here.

  I think the divide is bigger on more important issues, so compromise and bipartisanship are more likely on less headline-grabbing issues.

  There’s a million other things you could have done that would have been more useful than posting your comment but here you are.
