Mike Lee @BasedMikeLee - The talking filibuster would work.
Let’s use it.
And pass the SAVE America Act.

This exchange is remarkable.
Senator @JohnCornyn & @LeaderJohnThune dismissed critics as "keyboard warrior-geniuses" who supposedly don't understand Senate rules. The pathway has been laid out to them by @BasedMikeLee for months, as well as by many others.
Then @DissidentClint, a former Senate procedural adviser who says Senator Cornyn was among the senators who once paid him for advice on Senate rules, responded: “The talking filibuster will work."
That's worth thinking about…
When people w/ firsthand procedural experience ALSO disagree with Senate Leadership, perhaps the response shouldn't be to mock the masses who are asking questions.
The discussion shouldn't be about whether Americans are allowed to learn Senate procedure, or engage with you on it. If you are serving your constituents and the will of the voters, that shouldn’t be a problem. It ‘should’ be about whether every available procedural option has been exhausted before concluding nothing more can be done.
The House has already passed the SAVE America Act multiple times. Whether you support the bill or oppose it, voters deserve serious answers, not dismissive labels or any further delays. Do you support Proof of citizenship and voter ID? If not, why not?
The argument deserves to be debated. Especially on something you promised & campaigned on. Especially on a critical piece of legislation like this, with over 80% of the nations population demanding it.
Time to stop insulting engaged Americans, and start delivering.
Please pass the Save America Act.
