Senate Filibuster’s Future Shaky, Meaning Radical Agenda Could Someday be Imposed by 51-to-50 Vote


us capitol worthy christian news(Worthy News) – Pretty much in every place in the nation’s capital, the majority rules. The lone holdout is the U.S. Senate, which was created to be a slower, more deliberative body. The filibuster slows things down by forcing the 100-member Senate to get 60 votes to move ahead on an issue.

In a Senate split 50-to-50, with Vice President Kamala Harris set to weigh in with the tie-breaking 51st vote, one of the only ways the Democrats can pass extremely controversial laws would be to abolish the filibuster, which gives the minority its only way to block those changes.
