Racist and gender-based violence, white supremacy, and xenophobia have afflicted our nation since its inception. We must all name them, condemn them, and do everything within our power to halt them, wherever and in whatever form they occur.

A filibuster is a political strategy in which a US senator threatens to speak for hours on end to try and delay efforts to vote for a bill.

The filibuster is a powerful legislative device in the United States Senate.
