2024 Presidential Nominee Kamala Harris Supports Ending Senate Filibuster to Codify Roe v. Wade
Sep 24, 2024, 05:03 PM
Vice President Kamala Harris, the Democratic nominee in the 2024 presidential election, has publicly announced her support for eliminating the Senate filibuster to codify the protections of Roe v. Wade into federal law. In an interview with Wisconsin Public Radio, Harris emphasized that the filibuster should be removed to ensure that 51 votes would be sufficient to pass legislation reinstating nationwide abortion rights. This stance aligns with her previous position as Vice President, where she pledged to cast a tie-breaking vote to end the filibuster for reproductive rights. However, her recent declaration has drawn criticism from Senator Joe Manchin, who stated he cannot endorse Harris due to her commitment to ending the filibuster, which he described as the 'Holy Grail of democracy.'
