Scorched Earth Senate Policy
The filibuster is just one of 44 standing rules in the Senate. Each is designed to enhance the rights of the individual senators, at the expense of the majority. With today’s ALG Minute, I’m Catherine Mortensen.
Senator Mitch McConnell said if Democrats remove the filibuster rule, it may lead to a scorched earth policy when Republicans regain the majority. He says conservatives wouldn't just erase every liberal change that hurt the country, they would pass conservative policies with zero input from the other side.
McConnell said, “How about this, nationwide right to work, or working America defunding Planned Parenthood and sanctuary cities on day one, a whole new era of domestic energy production, sweeping new protections for conscience, and the right to life of the unborn.”
The filibuster isn't the problem. The Senate isn't broken. All that's really standing in the way of good legislation is a Democratic majority unwilling to compromise on any aspect of their radical agenda.
