Dems Plan On Making Some Radical Changes If Biden Is Elected


Democratic Presidential nominee Joe Biden is taking his entire campaign I pledge to restore “ normalcy” if you were to come out on top in the November election in spite of other Democrats who pledge to implement some radical changes, should they be voted into the White House and both chambers of Congress.

Biden has repeatedly contested against Republican efforts to tie him the party’s more progressive wing.  De declared, “ I am the Democratic party right now,” during Tuesday night's presidential debate. However other Democratic leaders are in support of policies with the potential to reshape the country. This includes eliminating the filibuster, granting statehood to Puerto Rico in Washington DC, and expanding the Supreme Court.

During an interview with MSNBC Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer said, "As far as the filibuster, I'm not busting my chops to become majority leader to do very little or nothing. We are going to get a whole lot done.”

He added, “Everything, everything is on the table."

The question of eliminating the filibuster has created internal conflict within the Democratic Party. Senator Jon Tester for instance suggested last week that he would be open to eliminating the 60-vote threshold in the Senate which is in stark contrast to the position he held just last year.

“I didn’t come here to not do anything. I came here to get things accomplished. I think the filibuster’s very important, and I think it makes for better legislation, and I still believe that,” Tester said to National Review. “I still support the filibuster, but, like I said, we’ll see what happens with the other side. Who knows what’s going to happen?”

But several Senators such as Sens. Kyrsten Sinema, D-Ariz., Joe Manchin, D-W.V., and Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., still reject the idea of filibuster reform.

“I think the filibuster serves a purpose,” Feinstein said last week. “It is not often used, it’s often less used now than when I first came, and I think it’s part of the Senate that differentiates itself.”
