Second, the filibuster was not created intentionally by the founding fathers to make the Senate more bipartisan or deliberative. It was created accidentally because of a speech Aaron Burr gave the Senate after he literally killed Alexander Hamilton. https://t.co/bEtHr33teM — PolitiTweet.org

First, it’s undemocratic: “At present, the 26 smallest states are home to roughly 17 percent of the U.S. population. Which is to say: The filibuster allows lawmakers elected by less than 17 percent of voters to exercise veto power over any and all laws.” https://t.co/PDN6g8offk — PolitiTweet.org

Third, it’s holding us back. A vast majority of Americans want economic change, gun reform, a plan to address climate change, and healthcare for all. Our lopsided Senate makes these changes difficult. The filibuster makes them nearly impossible. — PolitiTweet.org
