Abstract

Description

America faces enormous challenges, from budget deficits to national security. But it is crippled by extraordinary paralysis in Congress, including the unprecedented use of the filibuster. Congress must be restored to a functioning body. This will require reform of the filibuster in the Senate to foster needed debate while preventing its misuse to stymie urgent legislation.
