Senators Biden and Schumer opposed eliminating the filibuster
As a U.S. Senator, Joe Biden said in 2005 that the Senate was intended by the Founders to serve as a “cooling saucer.”
But now the current Senate Majority Leader is pushing to “nuke” the filibuster.
Well, call it Karma or “sowing and reaping.” You should know that what goes around, comes around.
Every time a political party tries to change the Senate rules for their political gain, it comes back to bite them.
Harry Reid nuked the rules in 2013 in order to pack the D.C. Circuit. But guess what? His actions were used by Republicans only a half-decade later to secure a conservative majority on the Supreme Court.
Please do not destroy the rules or eliminate the filibuster for short-term advantage because, ultimately, it will come back to bite you.

Barack Obama opposed nuking the filibuster
As a U.S. Senator, Barack Obama said, “What [the American people] don’t expect is for one party -- be it Republican or Democrat -- to change the rules in the middle of the game [by eliminating the filibuster], so that they can make all the decisions while the other party is told to sit down and keep quiet.”

History shows that nuking the Senate rules comes back to haunt you
Senator Joe Biden said that the “nuclear option would eviscerate the Senate and turn it into a second House of Representatives.” That was in 2005.
But now the current Senate Majority Leader is pushing to “nuke” the filibuster.

Oppose every effort to limit or restrict the filibuster!
In 2017, Senator Chuck Schumer said that, “Without the 60-vote threshold for legislation the Senate becomes an majoritarian institution like the House -- much more subject to the whims of electoral change.”
But now the Senate Majority Leader is pushing to “nuke” the filibuster.

Don’t nix the filibuster
I hope that you will do everything in your power to OPPOSE the House-passed gun control. And that you will SUPPORT every effort to preserve the filibuster at all costs!
After all, the core agenda of the Democrat Party, and the “to do” list of Joe Biden, is breathtaking. Anti-gun Democrats want to compile a national gun registry on the basis of the Universal Background Check (UBC) legislation. And Biden wants to ban hundreds of commonly-owned firearms -- including AR-15’s. Of course, the easiest way to ban and/or confiscate these guns is by registering them first.
The Obama-Biden Administration recognized that Universal Background Checks could ONLY operate effectively alongside gun owner registration. In 2013, a leaked memo from the Justice Department said about UBCs: “Effectiveness depends on the ability to reduce straw purchasing, requiring GUN REGISTRATION.” (emphasis added).
Gun registration first. Then gun confiscation.
But clearly, the only thing which prevents anti-gun Democrats from doing all these things is … the Senate filibuster. Please let me know if you will fight to keep this all-important tool which Republicans have to defeat the agenda of the radical, anti-gun Left.
Gun Owners of America will score a vote to eliminate or limit the filibuster as an anti-gun vote.
GOA will score a vote to nix the filibuster as an anti-gun vote

Biden can only decimate the 2A if the filibuster is eliminated
