Filibuster, we mean. With President Biden's (still has a nice ring to it, eh?) Covid relief bill passed, we turn our attention to the future of legislation and what the split Senate means for Democrats. We welcome Shane Larson, Senior Director for Government Affairs and Policy for Communications Workers of America (and a filibuster expert) to the show to talk about how Democrats must reform the arcane rule. Without change, the GOP minority will continue to stymie progressive legislation, despite representing 40 million less citizens than their Democratic counterparts. We also chat about other news of the day and of course, the new word of the week.
