UPDATE: Moments ago, Sen. Joe Manchin announced that he will vote to begin
debate on protecting democracy when the Senate votes later this evening.
That sets up all 50 Democrats to stand united in a commitment to protect
our democracy -- inaction is not an option.
But Republicans are expected to block the debate and require 60 votes by
using the filibuster.
(In the name of "unlimited debate" -- which is what the filibuster is
supposedly about -- Republicans will block the starting of debate.)
[ [link removed] ]Until the vote actually happens after 5pm Eastern, please call your
senators -- no matter who they are. All senators need to hear volume TODAY
to increase pressure on Republicans.
Then, [ [link removed] ]join the grassroots army fighting to ELIMINATE THE FILIBUSTER so
we can defeat Mitch McConnell's obstruction and protect democracy with a
simple majority.
Today's vote is just the beginning of the fight. As we've worked for
months on this issue, we and allies have assumed Republicans would
obstruct.
The next month will be intense as we urge Democrats to reform the
filibuster. Your activism today kicks off a big month ahead, and we'll
keep you informed of developments throughout. Please pass to others as
well.
Thanks for being a bold progressive.
