MOVE MY BILL, NOW! - A History of Discharge Petitions

from My History Can Beat Up Your Politics · host Bruce Carlson

It is a rarely used tactic, but when it works, it can do big things, like moving a bill through Congress even if the Speaker doesn't support it. From civil rights to gun show loopholes, from budget balancing to debt ceilings, we look at the Discharge Petition. And why it's become important for GOP conservatives in the 90's and for Democrats today.
