URGENT:SENATE FILIBUSTER THREATENED BY DEBT CEILING COMPROMISE |
Well, that certainly isn’t the case. Our friends from Gun Owners of America have alerted us to a new danger to our liberty and common sense civil rights.
Just yesterday (Tuesday, December 7), Senate Democrats reportedly struck a deal with Senator Mitch McConnell and GOP Leadership to get around the filibuster “just this once.”
Speaker Pelosi rushed this nonsensical deal through the House of Representatives on a party-line vote (222-212) last night.
At the same time last night, Senator Schumer filed cloture on a motion to concur with this deal.
SO PLEASE CONTACT YOUR SENATORS NOW, AS A VOTE IS IMMINENT!
This is an all-hands-on deck kind of fight, so get your family and friends involved before the anti-liberty leftists win the first real battle in the war to destroy the filibuster — which will destroy your common-sense civil right of self defense.
The Senate filibuster is the only thing that keeps gun control from passing right now. Without the filibuster, anti-liberty Democrats will be able to pass gun control and much more with a mere 51 votes in the Senate.
This compromise over the debt ceiling will push through language amending the Senate rules to allow the Democrats to raise the debt ceiling with only a simple majority down the road.
This time, the Senate is “only” proposing to violate the filibuster “just this once.”
The current language only allows for the passage of one bill and only before January 15th, after which the new rule sunsets. However, the consequences of this ridiculous new precedent will last far beyond January 15th.
So please, help us raise a loud roar of opposition in Senate offices.
Urge your Senators to fight for the filibuster!
To understand why gun owners MUST be involved, all you have to do is imagine a future scenario where this is undertaken, but replace the “debt ceiling crisis” with a “gun control crisis.”
So please, contact your Senators and tell them to oppose any efforts to undermine the filibuster no matter what the legislative vehicle might be.

Suggested Subject: “Oppose Undermining the Filibuster!”
Dear Senator:
GRNC and GOA have informed me that there are plans to eliminate the filibuster to raise the debt ceiling.
I am opposed to Section 8 of the Rules Committee Print 117-22 House Amendment to S. 610 and any other attempt to undermine the filibuster!
To understand why I am opposed, all you have to do is imagine a future scenario where this is undertaken, but replace the “debt ceiling crisis” with a “gun control crisis.”
The Senate filibuster is the only thing that keeps gun control from passing right now. Without the filibuster, anti-liberty Democrats will be able to pass gun control and much more with a mere 51 votes in the Senate. They will be able to:
- Pass gun bans and Universal Gun Registration
- Override state election laws to allow for greater voter fraud
- Pack the courts so that new judges will approve Biden’s anti-liberty agenda.
This is why anti-liberty Democrats want to destroy the filibuster. And they are using a so called “debt ceiling crisis” as the foot in the door to weaken the filibuster.
I will be monitoring this issue through Grass Roots North Carolina legislative alerts.
Respectfully,
