Some democratic states have actually done that like California and New York. There’s been bills from some dems representatives to do that federally in the past
If dems get a tricecta, I suspect some dems would push for that again
But there is also a perverse incentive in politics against permanent solutions - as once Dems pass a law increasing/indexing the minimum wage, it’ll eventually become normalised after a couple cycles and people will fall back into their old ways and switch back to voting against their interests (GOP) due to social issues.

And then other Dems would block it! Sorry, I have no faith in good things happening. Still voting Dem though.
Ideally, it would.

If they solve the problem they cant campaign on it. Xeno paradox ish.
