Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.) and Kyrsten Sinema (D-Ariz.) dashed the Biden administration\u2019s hopes that the Senate would vote to remove the filibuster hurdle to pass a law codifying Roe v. Wade.<\/p>\n<p>On Thursday, President <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theepochtimes.com\/t-joe-biden\">Joe Biden<\/a> told reporters in Spain that he wants Congress to pass the law and suggested the Senate\u2019s filibuster rule, which requires 60 votes to overcome, be removed.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe foremost thing we should do is make it clear how outrageous this decision was,\u201d Biden said. \u201cI believe we have to codify Roe v. Wade in the law, and the way to do that is to make sure that Congress votes to do that.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSenator Manchin\u2019s position has not changed,\u201d said Sam Runyon, spokeswoman for the West Virginia senator, according to media reports.

That does not destabilize democracy\u2014it affirms it. By contrast, it is behavior like the president\u2019s that undermines equal justice and the rule of law.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Earlier in 2022, Biden suggested that he wants to end the 200-year-old filibuster to back a Democrat-backed voting law.
