So could you sketch out to us what this might look like if the bill were brought and with a talking filibuster? What could that potentially look like?
10:51
Sure.
10:52
So the majority leader would bring the bill to the floor.
10:56
He would make the bill the pending business.
10:59
So the Senate can only ever consider one piece of legislation at a time.
11:03
So there's always a piece of pending business or the next thing that the Senate's going to move to.
11:07
Now, thanks to some of the procedural maneuvers from the House where they're sending over a bill that already passed the Senate, amending it, and then sending it back, that expedites consideration for that bill.
16:07
And Democrats should take heed that this is very popular in their districts, too.

What do you think?
22:09
Well, I think what that shows is that this isn't actually about the logistics.
22:14
This isn't about whether or not someone can get a passport or whether or not someone can bring their birth certificate to the polling place.
22:21
This is because the Democrats don't like this policy because they know that lax elections benefit them.
22:26
they know that their voters are more likely to be those who might be voting fraudulently.
22:32
So they can bring all of the paperwork arguments.
22:34
They can bring any number of claims about what may or may not happen as a result of this bill passing.
23:16
It's not going to work.
