What Wendy Stands For

The Texas legislature tried to pass SB5, which would have limited abortion and regulated abortion clinics.  Senator Wendy Davis (D-Fort Worth) filibustered, as it was the last day of the session.  I followed by proxy the events through Facebook.  I had pro-life friends at the senate, and pro-choice friends livestreaming it long into the night.  Depending on the side, it was filibuster by mob or a devious bill and trampling parliamentary procedure (including allegations of time-stamp changing).  By the end of the night, the result was in: the vote in favor of passing the bill didn’t count, because the legislative session had ended two minutes before.

Texas Filibuster a Life Decision

In a scene familiar to many, the young senator passionately defends his state constituents through a 24-hour filibuster while the older senators refuse to listen, but as he grows weary there is a sudden change in perspective and his cause is accepted as the right choice for America.  Mr. Smith Goes to Washington is a piece of political folklore that unfortunately conveys a one-sided message about the role of the filibuster in American politics.
