Filibuster just got more likely

April 18, 2010 | federal legislation, industry | Comments (0)

From today’s Boston Globe:

Senator Scott Brown said this morning that he would join a Republican filibuster to block a package of financial overhauls from coming to a vote in the Senate, potentially providing GOP allies with the ammunition they need to stifle the Democrats’ plan designed to crack down on policies that lead to the economic meltdown.

Brown, in his first Sunday morning talk show appearance since being sworn in three months ago, also accused President Obama of playing politics with the issue and said that Democrats were not doing enough to work with the other side of the aisle.
