to defeat the Nuclear Option?


quorum - The number of senators that must be present for the Senate to do business. The Constitution requires a majority of senators (51) for a quorum. Often, fewer senators are actually present on the floor, but the Senate presumes that a quorum is present unless the contrary is shown by a roll call vote or quorum call.

All the demorats that whined about the Republicans considering using the nuclear option when they were the majority, saying that is is a power grab and the wrong thing to do are the same ones that are now using the nuclear option to change a rule that is over a hundred years old.



Reid, Obama and the rest of them should be put out of office as they are liars!!!

Dems didn't fillibuster House Republicans voting to make Paul Ryan the only person who could move to end the Government shutdown, as I remember.
