Exceptions to the Rule: The Politics of Filibuster Limitations in the U.S. Senate
Molly E. Reynolds
Most people believe that the filibuster prevents the Senate from acting on all but the least controversial matters. But that knowledge is not exactly correct. Reynolds argues that these procedures represent a key instrument of majority party power in the Senate. They allow the majority to produce policies that will improve its future electoral prospects, and increase the chances it remains the majority party.
