STOP 🛑 THE FILIBUSTER

Submitted by ub on

The majority of Americans support ending the political delay tactic where congress debates to prevent a vote on USAGov legislation.

The GOP said they would drain the swamp, but filled it instead. Now it is time to empty the Filibuster for the good of Democracy and to keep our young Republic.

USA voters need action on climate change, gun violence, voting rights, reproductive rights and aren't willing to let the filibuster stand in their way any longer. The procedure has increased dramatically in recent decades with troubling implications for the Democratic process.

There have previously been filibuster exceptions for cabinet and judicial nominations, budget resolutions, trade promotion authority, etc. so there are no downsides to adding the debt ceiling.
