[QUOTE="Hobbes, post: 2037347, member: 3371"] It should be easy to filibuster the bills proposed by Feinstein and Lautenberg. These are [U]some[/U] of the senate bills blocked by GOP filibusters in the last two years. 112th Congress, 2011-2012 [URL="http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/bdquery/z?d112:s.2230:"]S2230[/URL] Paying a Fair Share Act of 2012 [URL="http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/bdquery/z?d112:s.2204:"]S2204[/URL] Repeal Big Oil Tax Subsidies Act [URL="http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/bdquery/z?d112:s.3414:"]S3414[/URL] The CyberSecurity Act [URL="http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/ntquery/z?nomis:112PN0120100:"]PN1201[/URL] Presidential nominee [URL="http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/bdquery/z?d112:s.3364:"]S3364[/URL] Bring Jobs Home Act [URL="http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/bdquery/z?d112:s.3369:"]S3369[/URL] A bill to provide for additional disclosure requirements for corporations, labor organizations, Super PACs and other entities [URL="http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/bdquery/z?d112:s.2237:"]S2237[/URL] Small Business Jobs and Tax Relief Act [URL="http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/bdquery/z?d112:s.3220:"]S3220[/URL] Paycheck Fairness Act [URL="http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/bdquery/z?d112:s.2343:"]S2343[/URL] Stop the Student Loan Interest Rate Hike Act of 2012 [URL="http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/ntquery/z?nomis:112PN0078400:"]PN784[/URL] Presidential nominee [URL="http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/ntquery/z?nomis:112PN0000500:"]PN05 [/URL] Presidential nominee [URL="http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/bdquery/z?d112:s.1723:"]S1723[/URL] Teachers and First Responders Back to Work Act of 2011 [URL="http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/bdquery/z?d112:s.1660:"]S1660[/URL] American Jobs Act of 2011 [URL="http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/bdquery/z?d112:s.1323:"]S1323 [/URL] A bill to express the sense of the Senate on shared sacrifice in resolving the budget deficit [URL="http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/bdquery/z?d112:s.782:"]S782 [/URL] Economic Development Revitalization Act of 2011 [URL="http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/ntquery/z?nomis:112PN0000300:"]PN3 [/URL] Presidential nominee [URL="http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/ntquery/z?nomis:112PN0004900:"]PN49[/URL] Presidential nominee 112th Congress, 2010-2011 [URL="http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/bdquery/z?d111:H.R.5281:"]HR5281[/URL] The DREAM act [URL="http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/bdquery/z?d111:S3991:"]S3991[/URL] Public Safety Employer-Employee Cooperation Act of 2010 [URL="http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/bdquery/z?d111:S3985:"]S3985[/URL] Emergency Senior Citizens Relief Act of 2010 [URL="http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/bdquery/z?d111:S3772:"]S3772[/URL] Paycheck Fairness Act [URL="http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/bdquery/z?d111:S3816:"]S3812[/URL] Creating American Jobs and Ending Offshoring Act [URL="http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/bdquery/z?d111:S3628:"]S3628[/URL] Federal Election Campaign Act amendments [URL="http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/ntquery/z?nomis:111PN0135100:"]PN1351[/URL] Presidential nominee [URL="http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/bdquery/z?d111:S1776:"]S1776[/URL] Medicare Physician Fairness Act A more complete list of filibuster actions can be found here: [URL]http://www.senate.gov/pagelayout/reference/cloture_motions/112.htm[/URL] [URL]http://www.senate.gov/pagelayout/reference/cloture_motions/111.htm[/URL] We even saw Sen. Mitch McConnell filibuster [U]his own bill[/U] this year. Surely we can get at least one filibuster in the US senate. The only fly in the ointment is that Republicans have filibustered so much in the senate that Reid is now planning to change the rules in the next Senate to make it more difficult to filibuster. He might actually require that a senator actually take the floor and talk about the bill in order to filibuster it instead of just making an objection in the senate journal. What senator will filibuster Feinstein's bill and take the floor to talk about why??? [/QUOTE]
