Jonathan Bernstein on Filibuster Reform

June 7, 2010

Jonathan Bernstein, sage of political science, put together a superb series of posts on filibuster reform last week as a guest blogger for Ezra Klein. I liked them so much I thought I’d gather up links to all of them, so they’d be indexed in one place. So, here they are:

  1. Our dysfunctional Senate
  2. The logic behind Senate rules
  3. The democracy behind Senate rules
  4. Guidelines for Senate reform
  5. Best quote about why Senate reform is needed
  6. Assessing Senate reform proposals, Part 1
  7. Assessing Senate reform proposals, Part 2
  8. Wrapping up Senate reform with Superbill

I’ll comment on some of these another time. It’s excellent stuff that really challenges reform advocates to think hard about their positions.
