Harry Reid flips on nuclear option

12-22-2013 • Free Press Publications

In November, with little media coverage, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid led the charge in changing the Senate rules relating to filibusters. The Washington Post reported, “Democrats used a rare parliamentary move to change the rules so that federal judicial nominees and executive-office appointments can advance to confirmation votes by a simple majority of senators, rather than the 60-vote supermajority that has been the standard for nearly four decades,” noting, “the rule change does not apply to Supreme Court nominations or to legislation.”
