Senate World Court Vote Fails as Blease Turmoil Rises
In Washington on January 18, the Senate faced a quick vote on the world court but was stalled by Senator Blease’s third filibuster of the week. Debate stretched hours as calls to vote echoed through the chamber, with Vice President Dawes ready to order a roll call. Blease lampooned the court question, while discussions of curbing debate surfaced amid preparations for an executive session. Meanwhile tax reduction bill provisions face likely repeal despite GOP Democrat compromise.
