Biden Calls for Filibuster ‘Exception’ to Codify Roe after ‘Outrageous’ Supreme Court Decision

By Diana Glebova June 30, 2022

Speaking from the NATO summit in Madrid on Thursday, President Joe Biden condemned the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v. Wade and called for an exception to the Senate filibuster to codify the federal right to abortion. 

Biden then claimed the court’s decision presents a problem for privacy in the U.S. more broadly, and called for voters to cast their ballots in November for pro-abortion candidates.

“I think it’s a serious, serious problem that the court has thrust upon the United States, not just in terms of the right to choose, but in terms of the right of who you can marry, and a whole range of issues related to privacy,” the president said, adding that he will do “everything” he can to codify the federal right to abortion through Congress.....To Read More....

Robin's Take  - When the left can't get their way, they either try to change the rules to favor themselves, or break the rules.  They never look at the long term consequences, and never learn - they wound up regretting following Dirty Harry Reid and eliminating the filibuster on SC nominees... but now they want to do it for abortion anyhow.  Never occurs to them that it'll come back to bite them because Republicans will win things they don't like with the new rules.  Of course, now they're wanting to do it for JUST the one thing it'll help them on, but not across the board.  They don't give a rip about fairness, equality under the law, or anything else - only getting their own way on anything and everything.
