Biden supports changing filibuster rules in Senate
Fox News
President Biden said in an interview Tuesday that he is in favor of overhauling the filibuster rules that could help Democrats use their majority in the Senate to steamroll some legislative initiatives without so much as looking at their Republican colleagues.
Biden was interviewed by ABC News and made it clear that he wanted to reform the rules and bring back the "talking filibuster," which has been supported by a number of Democrats. "It’s getting to the point where, you know, democracy is having a hard time functioning," Biden said. Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell and other Republicans have been critics of the Democrat push that has been gaining momentum, but still lacks enough support to keep from becoming a reality at the moment. McConnell on Tuesday warned of a "scorched earth" landscape if Democrats end the filibuster.More Related News
