Assignment:

Many Democrats believe the filibuster should be eliminated. Most Republicans and some moderate Democrats believe it is in important protection for the minority party. If the filibuster is eliminated by the Democrats now, it will make it more likely that Republicans will be able to pass more legislation with a 50 vote majority if they take the House and possibly the Senate in 2024?

Imagine you are a Member of Congress, would you take to this political calculation into account? why or why not? Do you believe the filabuster is a good way to force leadership of the majority party to negotiate with minority members? Or do you think that the majority represents the majority of States and therefore should be able to get their priorities passed and keep the country moving forward?
