Filibuster - updated
Tonight is the night Harry Reid uses his newly-found spine and forces Republican Senators to carry through with their threat of filibuster of the Levin-Reed amendment.
Instead of a boring filibuster where Senators read the phonebook or whatnot, the Dems are, in my opinion, doing the right thing and using the filibuster for what it’s meant for: debating.
You can see the debate on CSpan2. In case you don’t receive C-Span on your tv, you can stream it live online here.
In fact, you can always watch any channel of CSpan (1, 2, 3, radio, etc) live online at c-span.org.
[btp here, always looking for the local angle-- make sure you thank our senators for having Reid's back on this.
Here are toll-free numbers to the Capitol Switchboard:

Just call, ask to be transferred to Schumer and/or Hilary. Let's remind them that their constituents like to see their electeds fighting for what's right!]
