The examples you give aren't popular enough, in enough right places (since legislative representation is uneven) to get the 60 Senate seats of support required to make them law. At least in part because the donor and lobbying class opposes them as currently framed, but enough voters are swayed by donor-class-funded messaging to prevent voting in sufficient supportive legislators.
