Ruth KubierschkySarah Scott No kidding! We need the Fairness Doctrine back.1 . Rick ElizabethSarah Scott hey dear . Eric BleuelJust make it a real filibuster instead of a procedural declaration.3 . Douglas AingeDemocrats have used the filibuster to stop attacks on social security and Medicare, when democrats were in minority status in the Senate. Republicans have constantly tried to cut social security and Medicare and rights of the Affordable Care Act.We won’t be in the majority for ever, so then what?Republicans could/would vote with 51 Senators, to cut monthly benefits for ALL programs that keep seniors alive.Modify it yes! Make it tougher to do, yes!But, to eliminate the majority of Americans from Senate votes is down right dangerous, for a democratic-republic.So the best solution is constitutional.An Amendment that reorganizes representation in the Senate more toward human population, not land mass.There would need to be 70 democratic senators for that to occur, plus a bigger house majority. Then 36 States would have to ratify it.The last step is what killed the ERA.3 You don’t stop teaching when you get old you get old when you stop teaching poster

Rox MarieSeems like it’s only useful when a party doesn’t hold a majority, which is why it could be necessary in this day and age where we constantly have to hear about Congress being unable to compromise. Please cut the signal-to-noise and adjust term limits accordingly.46 . Cathy Mennealy RegisterGet rid of it. We’re tired of the Senate and House Republicans stealing, robbing and cheating their way thru our communal lives. Enough is enough. 59 . Dan AdrianThank You Senator. We need to get rid of this ridiculous rule NOW. Republicans know the majority of Americans don’t support them now and with the demographic changes happening even less people will. They desperately want to hold on to the filibuster to continue to thwart the will of the majority. 71 . Marie LoganWe also need some bills not allowing companies like Zillow to purchase hundreds, maybe thousands of home and then flipping for profit. I know this is a capitalist society, but this is beyond, beyond acceptable. Homes are meant to be lived in and need to be affordable for all.5 You don’t stop teaching when you get old you get old when you stop teaching poster
