Oct. 5, 2018, Fairfax, Va.—Americans for Limited Government President Rick Manning today issued the following statement praising former Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) for his part in eliminating the judicial filibuster:
“One of the unsung heroes of today’s vote to advance the nomination of Brett Kavanaugh is Harry Reid, who in 2013 began the process of eliminating the judicial filibuster so that Senate minorities could not have an effective veto over the President’s choice of judges. Today Americans for Limited Government thanks former Senator Harry Reid, without whom Judge Kavanaugh would not be headed to the floor.”
