Sen. Brown Challenges Republican’s UNPRECEDENTED use of the Filibuster

Republicans have been stalling President Obama’s nominee, Craig Becker, to the National Labor Relations Board simply because he has a pro-union philosophy, simply because he will stand up for the middle-class.

Sen. Brown (D-OH) and other member of the Senate have had enough of it.

According to Judiciary Committee Chairman Pat Leahy (D-Vt.): “I’m in my thirty-sixth year. I’ve never seen anything like it.” Leahy describes that no previous Republican Senate leader would have allowed his party to filibuster such a routine nomination.
