QOTD: "On Wednesday night, House Republican Conference Vice Chairwoman Lynn Jenkins, released a statement calling for the end of the 60-vote threshold, the first member of leadership to take that public stand.

“Harry Reid opened the door to this last Congress,” Jenkins said of Reid, who, as majority leader, employed the nuclear option to break the GOP filibuster of Obama’s judicial nominees. “It’s time Senate Republicans walked through that door.

“Our nation cannot afford a government continually held hostage by Democrats unwilling to hold a vote on the critical issues facing America,” Jenkins continued. “These votes are simply too important to continue to be ignored.”" -- Emma Dumain and Niels Lesniewski
