If only this could get through the Senate filibuster process.

It only takes 51 votes to change the filibuster rules.

Realistically, there is a reluctance on the part of Republicans to change the filibuster rules.

And the reasoning is that, we would like the filibuster to still be a place the next time the Democrats control the Senate.

I know there are mixed opinions on this subject.

I have mixed feelings about the filibuster but it is way past time for the majority party to take full responsibility for their agenda be it good or bad.
