“The Senate would be more like a 100-car pileup”
- Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell
John, before we ask you to let us know your thoughts on the filibuster, here’s an update on Mitch McConnell’s “work” in the Senate:

Democrats in the House recently passed H.R. 1 -- the For the People Act. The bill strengthens our democracy, ends gerrymandering, and expands voter access. McConnell’s now promising that if Democrats do anything to pass it -- including changing or abolishing the filibuster -- he’ll turn the Senate into a “100-car pileup” to further impede President Biden’s progress.
And it’s not just HR. 1, John. Bipartisan bills like the American Dream and Promise Act and H.R. 8 (universal background checks) are beginning to pile up.
We need to stop McConnell. Would you take our one-minute survey and let us know what you think about ending the filibuster?

It was just a few years ago that McConnell eliminated the 60-vote threshold to clear the way for Trump’s Supreme Court nominees. When Republicans have power, they don’t care about the rules.
The only way for Democrats to get these bills passed is to modify the filibuster. But we’d love to see where you’re at on this issue before taking action:
