History warns that changes to the Senate filibuster rules may prove counterproductive

History warns that changes to the Senate filibuster rules may prove counterproductive The Senate’s real problems go far beyond the construction of its rules. Rev. Jim Winkler, president and general secretary of the National Council of Churches, speaks outside National City Christian Church in Washington, April 5, 2021.

Rather than upending the legislative filibuster, an open-ended, unlimited reconciliation process simply bypasses the filibuster altogether. And, though still subject to strict budget parameters, such a move could still allow Senate Democrats to make dramatic changes to federal law without the input that would normally be required from Senate Republicans.
