Why talking filibuster & other reforms might be better than carve-out for voting rights bills

https://www.thedailybeast.com/democrats-can-save-voting-by-bringing-back-the-mr-smith-filibuster

 

The author argues that burden-shifting (i.e., bill opponents must have 41 votes at all times) and talking filibuster (bill opponents must continuously speak to the bill) would be better to get voting rights bill passed in the Senate.

 

“…media scrutiny would not favor the Republicans. In 1964, Strom Thurmond and other segregationists tied up the Senate for 75 days in a futile effort to kill the Civil Rights Act. As the obstruction dragged on, support for the bill grew.”

 

Charlie Cooper

changing times justify changing filibuster rule

https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2021/11/28/hypocrisy-argument-filibuster-is-itself-phony/

 

“A 2020 report from the Brennan Center for Justice nicely summarized just how radical the shift has been on the use and abuse of the filibuster. ‘There have been as many cloture motions in the last 10 years (959),’ wrote senior fellow Caroline Fredrickson, ‘as there were during the 60-year period from 1947 to 2006 (960).’”

Dems urged to show more urgency on voting rights

https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2021/10/25/democrats-voting-rights-crisis-filibuster-reform-urgency/

 

The author pinpoints election administration subversion as a new Constitutional threat from the current GOP; however, he errs in implying that voter suppression is not a threat when he says that “turnout is not associated with partisan advantage.” GOP does its research and employs voter roll purges, ID requirements, manipulation of elections resources to create long lines to create a differential advantage.

Insurance corp. donors may win a new potential pork barrel

The original Build Back Better Act would mandate paid family leave through the Social Security Administrtion at a [10-year] cost of $500 billion. House Ways and Mean Chair Richard Neal has substituted a $600-billion plan that goes through private insurance corps.

 

“Neal counts insurers like Blue Cross Blue Shield, Massachusetts Mutual, and Pacific Life among his top donors. He is also heavily backed by hospice and home health companies such as Amedisys and LHC Group, which has this year aggressively acquired hospice providers spun off by private equity.

“Sun Life, a life insurance company that also backs Neal, donated to at least nine other members of the Ways and Means Committee during the 2019–2020 cycle. The company has been an enthusiastic supporter of Neal’s plan, appearing in a promotional video alongside Melinda French Gates, the billionaire ex-wife of the Microsoft founder, who met with the White House to argue for paid leave on behalf of her social-impact investment firm, Pivotal Ventures. Sun Life was also featured among a set of stakeholder endorsements Neal’s committee released about the paid leave plan.”

The coming redistricting disaster

https://www.dailyposter.com/the-coming-redistricting-disaster/ 

 

"There are states that could have maps enacted this fall, over the course of the next couple of months. This isn't something that can be dealt with effectively after vacation. This is something that needed concerted effort and focus since day one."

 

Although the tone is dire, there is an implication that gerrymandering takes at least several weeks to go forward. Emergency legislation passed by the Congress soon after the Senate returns on September 13 could pre-empt state action.

Ironically, growth of minority populations in states that are under GOP control will give those states more seats. Through gerrymandering, those states will likely feature underrepresentation of minority citizens.
