Recent reports have warned Democrat hopefuls in Florida, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin have all endorsed doing away with the long-standing legislative rule.<\/p>\n<p>In Ohio, Congressman Tim Ryan (D) suggested the Senate is \u201cbroken\u201d in his bid for outgoing Sen. Rob Portman\u2019s (R) seat. Meanwhile in Florida, Congresswoman Val Demings (D) is looking to unseat Marco Rubio (R) and has vocally supported ending the filibuster.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">The Senate is broken and we can\u2019t sit around and wait for it to fix itself. If we want to stand up to China, rebuild our country, and cut workers in on the deal, we need to get rid of the filibuster. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/eI4QaJMhnW\">pic.twitter.com\/eI4QaJMhnW<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Tim Ryan (@TimRyan) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/TimRyan\/status\/1407910687553122310?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">June 24, 2021<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Reports have said there are a number of Democrat senators to keep an eye on with regards to the filibuster, including Sens. Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.) and Kyrsten Sinema (D-Ariz.) who recently said they were open to reforming the rule. However, Manchin has been a long-time defender of the filibuster and has shown little sign of shifting views in the past.<\/p>\n<h4>MORE NEWS: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.oann.com\/woman-gunned-down-during-trip-to-drop-off-son-at-naval-academy\/\">Woman Gunned Down During Trip To Drop Off Son At Naval Academy<\/a><\/h4>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Activists rally against the legislative filibuster outside of the Supreme Court on June 24, 2021 in Washington, DC.
