Filibuster

President Biden's Build Back Better bill seems to be stalled and so he his looking toward passing a voting rights bill but in order to do that he must by-pass the senate filibuster and once again Joe Manchin stands in the way. The last time the democrats did this was when Harry Reed by-passed the filibuster so the democrats could approved judges with a simple majority vote. This back fired as Trump was able to confirm two new justices needing only 51 votes. Democrats are attempting to change not only the filibuster but also the number of justices and the electoral college.
