He called for Congress to pass a bill codifying Roe v Wade, implementing an exception from the filibuster if necessary. Getting this filibuster exception wish; however, may face noncooperation from Senator Joe Manchin and Senator Kyrsten Sinema, Democrats.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><b>From Fox News:<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;The foremost thing we should do is make it clear how outrageous this decision was,&#8221; Biden said. &#8220;I believe we have to codify Roe v. Wade in the law, and the way to do that is to make sure that Congress votes to do that.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;And if the filibuster gets in the way, it&#8217;s like voting rights, we should require an exception to the filibuster for this action,&#8221; he continued.<\/p>\n<p>Biden had previously called on Congress to codify Roe following SCOTUS&#8217; Friday ruling, but he had not called for ending the filibuster. Biden has only previously called for the measure during his effort to pass voting reforms, which did not succeed.<\/p>\n<p>The filibuster allows the minority party in the senate to require a 60-vote majority to pass any legislation through the body. The Senate is currently split 50-50 between Republicans and Democrats.<\/p>\n<p>Democratic Sens. Joe Manchin of West Virginia and Kyrsten Sinema of Arizona have opposed efforts to throw out the filibuster throughout Biden&#8217;s administration. Manchin has reiterated his support for the rule even after the end of Roe.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Fox News has the article <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/biden-support-ending-filibuster-protect-abortion-access\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Joe Biden feels that the Supreme Court decision, overturning Roe v Wade, was &#8220;outrageous&#8221;.
