But Brian. It’s the
only remaining tradition that forces us to compromise.
We love to remember and honor the tradition of Strom Thurmond filibustering civil rights, don’t we folks? https://twitter.com/chriscoons/status/1076163703249223682?s=21 …https://twitter.com/ChrisCoons/status/1076163703249223682 …

The filibuster rule in the Senate is one of the only remaining traditions that forces us to compromise. We need more of that, not less.
Last year, @SenatorCollins and I made that clear in a letter to Leaders McConnell and Schumer – and 59 Senators from both parties joined us. pic.twitter.com/N3GmLU6fV6
