Eliminating the Filibuster Won t Matter as Much as You Think

Eliminating the Filibuster Won’t Matter as Much as You Think Frances E. Lee © Provided by The Atlantic Joe Manchin, West Virginia’s Democratic senator, has put everyone on notice: Under no circumstances will he vote to eliminate the Senate filibuster. If the support of at least 10 Republicans is needed to pass legislation, progressives have little hope for their agenda. At least that’s what many seem to think. But eliminating the filibuster probably wouldn’t matter as much as they believe it would. The bigger obstacle to any party’s agenda is its members’ inability to agree among themselves.

TribLIVE s Daily and Weekly email newsletters deliver the news you want and information you need, right to your inbox. WASHINGTON The Senate voted narrowly to confirm Vanita Gupta, President Joe Biden’s nominee for the No. 3 position at the Justice Department, in a near party-line vote after a debate that invoked the national dialogue over police reform and civil rights in the aftermath of George Floyd’s killing. The 51-49 vote Wednesday reflected weeks of debate over the selection of Gupta for a position that will be involved in civil rights policy and oversee antitrust enforcement. But the vote took on added symbolism a day after a White former Minneapolis police officer, Derek Chauvin, was found guilty of killing Floyd, an unarmed Black man.
