If they want a filibuster they should be required to stand on the floor of the senate and talk the entire time. They shouldn’t be able to say “I’m filibusting” and then go home
This was actually how they used to do it. There was one case where a Senator spoke on the Senate floor for 24 hours straight to try and filibuster the 1957 Civil Rights Act. But now, it just evolved to whether or not you have enough votes to overcome the filibuster.
I think America would much like to hear what some of our senators really think of their constituents. Get them talking about helping the poor and oppressed for long enough, and those euphemisms they love so much would wear away into being overt.

Thanks for this explanation, I'm Swedish, and I have heard these terms filibuster and gerrymandering a lot in American politics, and they come across so very odd to me. Get rid off all those things that limits democracy, like these things, and having election day on a work day, and having long lines so people have to take time off work to vote. Any party that creates or upholds a lot of rules and loopholes to stop the will of the people, should never be supported.
Problem is Republicans love it because it means they get to keep power. Without it, they would lose, so they do everything in their power to keep the status quo.
You'd be surprised how much american politics actually limit democracy. I've actually been seriously considering trying to eventually immigrate to Sweden, New Zealand, or Canada.
@@larrynottingham2502 No hard feelings, it's just not where I want to stay the rest of my life. There's lots of stuff to love about the US, but personally I think I could be happier elsewhere.
Cant help but feel like the “patriotic” ego of United States thinking we’re the only country in the world has contributed to the fact that everyone’s too proud and can’t get anything done
I was texting my Korean cousin last night and he said the same thing. He said he doesn't understand why (some) Americans think America is the only country in the world and why they think it's the greatest when it's far from being the greatest country in the world and I had to agree.
This really is a great country, maybe you don’t realize it until you see other ones. For example, being able to point out the flaws you see in our system without being executed or your family put in labor camp. Even with our flaws, this country is worth fighting for, and I’m willing to do it again if necessary. Happy to have any other able bodied/minded American by my side, regardless of political views, if you’ve got the fortitude.
M Ware, you must be out of your mind. The Republicgoons Senators don't want this to pass because they know that they can't win without passing stupid laws to suppress minority voters.
@@kospencer1 trust me the democrats don't abuse it as much as Republicans have. Plus there are a good amount of center left democrats willing to work with Republicans. You do not have the same thing happening the other way. Republicans when in the minority absolutely refuse to do any kind of cooperating. They will staunchly oppose anything the democrats bring up just for political gain. Not for what's best for the American people
I liked that this educated the general public about the filibuster, but nothing was said on how we the people could help abolish or change it. I like feeling informed, I just don't know what next steps look like.
@@ecmunz Like that does ANY good at all. If your rep appreciates your viewpoint, he doesn't need to be told the benefit of it. If he doesn't, it won't matter what you say to him, he WON'T (not can't) hear you anyway!
The filibuster was designed so that everyone would be able to have a say and debate the topic... it was not made to do what it is used for today. Despicable.
Here's my question: If pretty much everything decided/voted on in The House can get passed by just a 1 vote majority, then why is that not the case for The Senate/why do they need the filibuster?
It's a way for the minority party to not get ignored. If 51% of the representatives can pass 100% of whatever they want with no debate required, that to me seems a bit much.
@@ecmunz if the tables were flipped you wouldn't be blinded by such biased arrogance. Imagine a fascist party had a simple majority, you'd be greatful that there was SOME way to block their bs.
These are the same politicians that do not know what’s in their bills! They even admit that they don’t know 99% of what’s in a massive spending bill, let alone new legislation.
Ending the filibuster doesn’t help either party though , because when republicans take control again the democrats wouldn’t be able to filibuster against Republican legislation like they did for the last 4 years
The best explanation for filibuster is that neither republicans nor democrats are in charge. The big corporations give Bribe (Campaign Contribution) to both parties and control the agenda. So, the idea that each party would need a vast majority to get anything done is just a sick game to keep a tight leash on both parties. The corporations don't want either party to have real influence.
As a Canadian living under a bicameral parliamentary democracy, I just don't understand why Americans of any party are afraid of dropping the filibuster. Every other democracy on the planet is able to deal with it, why can't you?
Because Republicans can block anything they want by filibustering. Did you not see the video? Republicans rather oppose democrats that actually to and help the American people
Even if we have a Republican majority today I’d say we don’t need filibuster reform. Ancient Chinese text warns about how swift legislation change always take heavy toll on the people. If federal law can’t change fast enough to better serve the people than perhaps more power should be given to states and municipalities.
I'll admit I'm still bitter about the Democratic Primary, but compared to what happened around Joe Biden, I can at least give Warren the benefit of the doubt to an extent. as long as she avoids identity politics like the plague it is from now on... that being said, *she's right,* no question about that.

Its a European Design of Law that is used everyday in Parliament - USA DOESNT HAVE A PARLIAMENT ! if you state we do = THIS IS OUR PROBLEM = EUROPEAN DESIGN OF LAW !!! what didnt you get the First time i wrote that ?
From what I understand, without filibuster, then it would only require a simple majority to decide things, like in case of an impeachment trial. It would be a simple majority vs a 2/3 majority requirement
Impeachment in the House only requires a majority to move it to the Senate for a trial. Removal from office is an explicitly high bar in the Constitution, requiring a 2/3 majority of the Senate - that 2/3 is different than the filibuster as it is actually in the Constitution. The filibuster is simply a procedural rule, similar to what one might find in 'Robert's Rules of Order.'

There's a catch, no filibuster force cooperation, filibuster encourages obstruction for more leverage. There is indeed risk some politicians have vibranium skin but the risk is way lower compared to essential bill take 100 years to pass.
