    This is on the filibuster rule.

    Even if you have to free hand this do it.

    After listening to it you'd be a Speaking Filibuster fan

    I think, for the reasons in the video,we should go back to it. We need debate, not silence, to pass bills.

    There has been soooooooooooo much accomplished with the old rules. Politicians have become lazy and partisan and have not worked for the peoples' best interest for some time now.
