President Joe Biden is trying to ramp up pressure on Senate Democrats to change to the chamber’s filibuster rules and pave the way for passage of voting-rights legislation with phone calls to lawmakers and a trip to the Capitol to meet with Senators on Thursday.

A White House statement said Biden is focusing on “the urgent need” to pass the voting-rights bills in the face of persistent attacks on the integrity of U.S. elections through false claims by former President Donald Trump that the 2020 presidential result was fraudulent.

In the meeting with Senate Democrats, the president will underscore that they need to change the chamber’s rules to accomplish that goal, the statement said.

Change the rules so we can win has become the Democratic motto.

It's going to be a lot more than just them to people standing up against Biden. I'm sure a few Democrat senators have a spine

Texas can set their own voting rights just fine, Brandon. Is there anybody in DC that wants to stand up for the American people anymore?
