Should the U.S. Senate eliminate the filibuster?

Asked by LostInParadise (31903points) February 29th, 2020

It now takes 60 votes for the Senate to pass bills, which many feel has weakened the ability of Congress to do anything. Elizabeth Warren says she wants to get rid of the filibuster. I don’t know what she would be able to do if elected president, but this matter should be discussed. In recent years, the filibuster has been eliminated in votes for judicial nominees. Has the time come to completely eliminate it?
