The filibuster must end in order to save our country. Some worry about what would happen if or when the GQP regains all the power again and what they will do with it and against the people. The Democrats must just do a better job and fight like hell for the people and not let the GQP get back into power.
It is up to us, the unions and people who want healthcare for all, free education, a living wage, address climate change for clean air and water, the right to vote, and stop the never-ending wars.
The filibuster is basically a form of obstruction and used to block legislation from proceeding to a vote. Republicans use this often, especially when the legislation will have a positive effect for the people or making voting easier or whenever Republicans want to have a tantrum. Those who do not pay attention to what happens in the Senate or don’t care so long as the immature Republicans are sticking it to the Democrats, and by extension, the people’s wellbeing, blame Democrats for not passing bills that help them.
If the filibuster was eliminated, we could start working on the down-ballot elections, which will change the gerrymandering of districts used mostly by republicans to steal elections from Democrats.
This is a fight we can win and would be good for all working and retired people and their families. We need all our groups to stand together and support each others needs and wants. There is enough for all of us, despite what the republicans will have you believe, and this will only make us stronger, better educated, healthier, and a reason to get up and go to work while earning a living wage to take care of your families. Eliminating the filibuster means we have a better chance of getting immigration reform, education reforms, healthcare reform, eliminating Citizens United, lobbying and many other improvements.
All unions need to come together and become politically active like the good old days and start applying pressure to eliminate the filibuster and other measures that help their members.
Have FBI agitators infiltrated our labor unions like the FBI did during black rights movement, feminist movement, and anti-Vietnam protests to sow the seeds of division between the factions and Malcolm X and Elijah Muhammed—to control and disrupt our labor movements from the inside? We don’t know at this time, and is anyone in the media or government looking into this? The war on labor and the effort to drag us back to serf wages is coming from within the White House with some labor union and MAGA members. Corporations are padding their accounts and of one greedy man instead of its workers. The war on labor is and will be fought between corporation titans and labor, and at this time the corporations will use the White House, courts and the FBI and even those at Homeland Security and I.C.E. against us. Labor must educate our members on how counter and what tactics are being used by the corporations and government against labor and the average person in general. How many people have lost...
