The
Democrats have taken the House, the Senate, and the Presidency –
yet they are still claiming that they can’t pass the policies
Americans desperately need. What’s stopping them? The filibuster –
a weapon of white supremacy used by Southern states to block
progress on civil rights. Sound familiar?
In this interview, Adam Jentleson
-- an expert on Senate procedure and the author of the book
Kill
Switch:
The
Rise
of the
Modern
Senate
and
the
Crippling
of American
Democracy --
explains what the filibuster is, how the Senate is using it to hold
Americans down, and how to get rid of it.
