“Absolutely,” Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell told reporters when asked about the issue.
Democrats have been trying to alter the rules so they could pass legislation with a simple majority, and some have renewed calls for filibuster changes to make it easier for the party to codify abortion rights.
