宾夕法尼亚州联邦参议员、民主党人约翰·费特曼在周一的一篇专栏文章中明确表示强烈支持议事阻挠程序，同时承认自2022年竞选以来，他在这一问题上的立场已经反转。
美国总统唐纳德·特朗普周一向参议院共和党人施压，要求他们废除议事阻挠程序。
“当民主党人掌控总统职位并在参众两院占据多数席位时，他们对推进立法所需的60票门槛感到不满。参议院民主党人曾试图废除议事阻挠程序，以推动乔·拜登总统的议程——这一努力在我2022年竞选期间得到了我的全力支持，”费特曼在《华盛顿邮报》的专栏文章中写道。
“在我的第一任期过半后，我现在认识到了议事阻挠程序的重要性，以及如果没有它，我们国家会陷入何种境地，”他指出。

“这项规则是一道关键的防线，防止唐纳德·特朗普总统推行他所青睐的新法律、放松管制或相关程序，让政府沦为‘填空式’执政，”他写道。
特朗普周一在Truth Social平台发帖，呼吁共和党人废除议事阻挠程序。
“约翰·图恩不应允许美国参议院‘放假离城’，除非参议院通过《拯救美国法案》，或者更棒的是，废除议事阻挠程序——届时共和党人就能快速通过他们梦寐以求的所有法案，包括一份全面且内容详实的《拯救美国法案》、预算案，以及迫在眉睫的1929年式债务上限危机！民主党人第一天就会这么做，他们肯定不敢相信自己能碰上这样的参议院领导层。记住，愚蠢永远只会带来失败与死亡！”特朗普写道。

在另一篇帖子中，他宣称：“率先废除议事阻挠程序的政党，才能生存并繁荣发展。但如果民主党人在这场竞赛中获胜，美国将迅速沦为一个不折不扣的第三世界国家！”
终结议事阻挠程序的 cloture 动议需要五分之三的赞成票，这意味着参议院共和党人即便拥有53个席位的多数党地位，也无法在不获得民主党支持的情况下凑齐60票——这一程序性障碍阻止了以简单多数票推进大多数立法。

“自2025年初以来，阻止许多不受欢迎政策出台的并非民主党人——而是议事阻挠程序，”费特曼在专栏文章中写道。

Fetterman strongly supports the filibuster as Trump urges Senate Republicans to scrap it
Fetterman admitted that he has done an about-face on the issue since his 2022 campaign

Sen. John Fetterman, D-Pa., expressed strong support for the filibuster in a Monday opinion piece, acknowledging that he has reversed his position on the issue since his 2022 campaign.
President Donald Trump on Monday was pressuring Senate Republicans to nix the filibuster.
“When Democrats had the presidency and a majority in both chambers, they were frustrated with the 60-vote threshold needed to advance legislation. Senate Democrats attempted to end the filibuster to push through President Joe Biden’s agenda — an effort I fully supported during my 2022 campaign,” Fetterman wrote in a Washington Post opinion piece.
“Halfway through my first term, I now recognize how important the filibuster is and the state our country would be in without it,” he noted.

“The rule is a critical line of defense that prevents President Donald Trump from having a fill-in-the-blank government with new laws, deregulation or procedures of its choosing,” he wrote.
The president issued Truth Social posts on Monday advocating for Republicans to scrap the filibuster.
“John Thune should not allow the United States Senate to ‘leave town’ until it passes The Save America Act or, far better still, TERMINATES THE FILIBUSTER, where Republicans can then quickly pass everything they ever dreamed of, including a full and deep throated SAVE AMERICA ACT, the Budget, and the ever looming Debt Ceiling disaster, 1929! The Dumocrats will do it on day one, and can’t believe how lucky they got with this Senate leadership. Remember, stupidity always brings LOSING & DEATH!” Trump wrote.

In another post, he declared, “Whichever Party Terminates the Filibuster FIRST will be the Party that survives and thrives. If the Dumocrats win this race, however, America will rapidly become nothing more than a Third World Nation!”
The three-fifths threshold required for cloture to end a filibuster means that Senate Republicans, even with their 53-seat majority, cannot get to 60 votes without Democrats — the procedural hurdle prevents advancing most legislation with a simple majority.

“The one thing that has stopped many unpopular policies since the beginning of 2025 isn’t the Democrats — it is the filibuster,” Fetterman wrote in his opinion piece.
