Washington Former Senate Democratic leader Harry Reid on Monday called for an end to the legislative filibuster, asserting that removing the procedure would help end the"era of obstruction and inaction" in the Senate.
"The Senate is now a place where the most pressing issues facing our country are disregarded, along with the will of the American people overwhelmingly calling for action. The future of our country is sacrificed at the altar of the filibuster," Reid wrote in a New York Times op-ed."Something must change. That is why I am now calling on the Senate to abolish the filibuster in all its forms.
