The US Constitution empowers both houses of Congress to establish rules and procedures for the transaction of legislative business. Senators generally have a range of actions they can take to support or oppose a piece of legislation. A particular member of the majority party in the Senate is opposed to a piece of legislation introduced by the majority party. (A) Identify an action that the senator can take to make it more difficult for the majority party to pass this piece of legislation.

(B) In the context of the scenario, explain how the majority party would most likely respond to the action taken in part A.

(C) The president belongs to the same party as the Senate’s majority party, and the midterm election is six months away. In the context of the scenario, explain how these two factors would affect the interaction between the senator and the majority party.

(A) A senator can make it more difficult to pass this piece of legislation by using a filibuster to stop or delay the bill the from passing.

(B) The majority leader can also use a cloture. The majority leader may cast such votes as take-it-or-leave-it propositions.Cloture is not merely a procedural tool that Senate majorities use to overcome minority filibusters.The increase in cloture votes also documents the effort of majority parties and majority leaders to expand their control over the Senate.

(C) The senator party could stop or delay a piece of legislation by using a filibuster if they oppose, what wants to be done. To stop this from happening the majority leaders could use a cloture which would overpower the senate's decision to use a filibuster. The cloture would cast votes in favor or oppose of the legislation piece. Since the president is part of the senate's majority party, there is a higher chance that the president will try to get things over with as soon as possible while trying to help their citizens.
