A House Democrat says she would have supported eliminating the filibuster if Democrats had control of the White House, Senate, and House, but she doesn’t support it now that Republicans have won all three levers of power.
Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-WA), chair of the Progressive Caucus, was speaking at a press conference on Monday about the 2024 election results when she was asked about her previous support for ending the filibuster.
“Am I championing getting rid of the filibuster now when the Senate has the trifecta? No,” she said, referring to Republicans taking back control of the White House and Senate and likely maintaining control of the House.
