WASHINGTON — The fate of the Senate filibuster is on the ballot in the 2024 election as Democrats rally around weakening the 60-vote threshold to pass major legislation like codifying abortion rights and bolstering federal voting rights. If President Joe Biden is re-elected and Democrats control the Senate, they would probably have the votes to change the filibuster.
Ruben Gallego, promises that if he is elected he would support “waiving the filibuster to codify Roe v. Wade.” Democratic candidates for open seats in California , Michigan , Delaware and Maryland have all called for eliminating the filibuster. “I am, like, loud and proud on reforming the filibuster so we can vote on gun laws, voter access, women’s rights,” Slotkin told constituents in a video she posted on Instagram.
