Kamala Harris and her supporters have made it clear that if she wins the presidency, they plan to eliminate the Senate filibuster, allowing Democrats to pass far-reaching legislation with just 51 votes. This move would open the door to sweeping changes that would not need bipartisan support, sparking concerns among conservatives about the future of the legislative process.
Harris’ top priority is codifying Roe v. Wade into law. Despite widespread public support for restrictions on late-term abortions, Harris and her allies want to push through a federal law that would remove state-level restrictions. This is just the beginning of their legislative plans.

Democrats also aim to pass the John Lewis Voting Rights Act, which would weaken voter ID requirements and legalize practices like ballot harvesting across the country. Many conservatives see this as a dangerous step that would undermine election integrity by making it easier to commit voter fraud.
In addition to these controversial goals, Harris and her party are eyeing statehood for Washington, D.C., and Puerto Rico. By adding two new states, Democrats would likely secure four more Senate seats, giving them a clear path to maintain control of Congress for the foreseeable future.
HARRIS ATTACKS: She demands an end to the filibuster and it will end America as we know it if she wins. This is one of the most important podcasts @tedcruz & I have ever done! https://t.co/ySmsC97ExE https://t.co/haYrUI2F9W

Without the filibuster, the Democrats’ agenda could quickly expand to include other policies like single-payer healthcare and wealth taxes. The move to eliminate the filibuster would give them free rein to push through a host of left-wing proposals without any input from Republicans or moderates.
Kamala Harris will be this countries demise. She will destroy the constituion, pack the supreme court, do away with the fillibuster and take total contol of your life your freedoms your finances unless your a liberal marxist on her side.

For conservatives, this election is more than a contest between political candidates. It’s a fight for the future of America’s political system, and many fear that eliminating the filibuster will lead to an unchecked Democratic majority passing radical policies that will be hard to reverse.
