Simply put, America is at a tipping point. It’s not tenable for the will of the majority of the voters to be continually thwarted by an archaic rule. We need to end the filibuster so we can protect and strengthen our democracy. So we can make progress — and make it lasting. — PolitiTweet.org

The filibuster has a shameful legacy: In the 1960s, segregationists used it to block civil rights legislation, including anti-lynching laws. And today, Republicans are using it block progress on everything from preventing gun violence to protecting voting rights, and more. — PolitiTweet.org

Eliminating the filibuster won't mean the end of minority views. That's what our system of checks and balances is for. But a filibuster that has frozen our ability to pass overwhelmingly popular reforms isn’t a healthy check and balance – It’s a roadblock to progress. — PolitiTweet.org
