I say “let’s make the filibuster great again”. These snowflake politicians have for too long been able to block legislation by merely asking to speak and then not saying anything at all. Let’s make them talk for hours and hours like the founding fathers intended
Absolutely. And while the person is filibustering, he should be placed in a small room, with a lectern, cameras, and a microphone, and must speak on the topic at hand. No reading from the phone book. You best be talking about the bill you’re stopping, or any supporter of that bill can immediately call for a vote. And you lecturing doesn’t mean the Senate’s business stops. Other bills can be called and the only way you get to vote is have someone take over the stand for you while you go vote. Regardless of who’s up there, you gotta keep talking about the bill. Make filibusters put skin in the game.
