Reform Judicial Filibuster Rule in Senate
The issue of judicial filibusters is one of the key issues in the 109th Congress. The ACLJ is communicating with members of the Senate urging a much needed reform of the rules regarding the use of the judicial filibuster. ACLJ has circulated a comprehensive memo to Senate Leadership and members of the Senate Judiciary Committee recommending that the rules be amended to insure qualified nominees to the federal bench receive an up-or-down vote by the full Senate.
