if there were any kind of support or backing for Sanders' legislation ...

Alas - as is almost always the case with Bernie ...

Edit: no disrespect toward the Senator - while many will herald him as 'fighting the good fight' - at the same time, I feel compelled to point to the fact that this is in fact 99% ineffectual. And with Sanders - that's largely what you get.
