Filibuster

The filibuster is when one person has the floor in the senate and they talk to stall, or stop the others from voting on a bill. The filibuster could be a positive thing in many situations such as stopping a bad bill from being hastily passed, or unjustly passed. The filibuster can be a bad thing when they can ruin a great bill just because one person doesn't like it, or doesn't like the person who proposed it. I support the filibuster because everyone has the freedom of speech and they can positively help the USA. They have helped us multiple times and the founding fathers chose to give the senators the right to use it for a reason, and I support them.
