Über diesen Titel

Democracies around the world only require a simple majority (above 50%) to pass legislation. The filibuster, which requires approval by 60% of the Senate, makes that chamber the most anti-democratic in the world. If Senators supporting a filibuster are from low population states, they could represent as few as twenty percent of Americans. So, in our democracy, the vast majority of Americans can deeply desire a piece of legislation, but the remaining portion of the population can kill it. The only way to stop this injustice is to eliminate the modern filibuster.
