Biden: I’ve Never Seen The Filibuster Be ‘Standard Operating Procedure’ Before Vice President Biden is continuing his criticism of the increased use of the filibuster. “It’s a useful tool, it is legitimate. But from my perspective, having served here, elected to the Senate seven times, I’ve never seen a time when it’s become standard operating procedure.
