V.P. wants to end the Filibuster

Kamala Harris says she ‘can’t wait’ to end Senate filibuster if Democrats win seats in midterms

Former prosecutor Kamala Harris, who vowed to uphold the Constitution, now wants to change it

Vice President Kamala Harris said over Saturday that she “can’t wait” to cast her vote to end the “archaic” Senate filibuster in order to advance measures that protect abortion at a federal level and implement voting reform legislation.

Harris’ remarks came during a speech at the Democratic National Committee’s summer meeting at National Harbor in Maryland, where she urged support for Democratic Senate candidates in the November midterm elections.

“With just two more seats in the Senate, we can codify Roe v. Wade, we can put the protections of Roe in law,” Harris said. “With two more seats in the United States Senate we can pass the Freedom to Vote Act and the John Lewis Voting Rights Act. Two more seats.”

Let's hope that Manchin and Sinema hold fast and better yet, Republicans take control of Congress.
