Babin Calls for Senate Rule Change to End Filibuster
Louisiana congressman Blaine Babin argues the Senate filibuster is a custom not a law and hinders President Trump’s agenda. He cites Democratic obstruction, opposes Planned Parenthood funding and border wall delays, and urges an up or down vote by a simple majority to bypass the 60 vote threshold.
