Repeal of the Congressional Filibuster

REPEAL THE CONGRESSIONAL FILIBUSTER

Why is this important?

I have watched as the highest percentage of filibusters in the history of Congress and our nation has been used as a punitive tool and political strategy by the radicalizing Republican Party purely as an insurance policy against any legislative progress and success by President Obama and the Democratic Party. Ignoring the will of the people, acting in opposition to their own historical support of compromise as a path to progress, and most disgracefully, disregarding the best interests of their constituents and the American people during a time of crisis, partisans in Congress have placed our country at risk and have jeopardized a financial recovery to advance their own specific agenda. Congress must act now to restore the power of the people, through its representatives, so as not to not be hostage to the 'ruling' party in Congress. Write your congressman NOW and let he or she know that you are tired of the 'stall' tactics and want to get things done immediately to move our country forward.
