reid lowered the vote threshold for presidential appointments other than supreme court nominees, to 51. in 2017, the republicans turned around and lowered the standards to 51 for supreme court nominees. based on that the left may call our opposition now hypocritical, but there is a big difference between legislation and nominations. including policy and our budget and nominees. debating legislation should include input from all senators and be subject to compromise through the amendment process in order to be made better. nominees' qualification are not subject to input or change. voting on a nominee is a, take it or leave it vote. you can't change their background or qualifications with more debate or more amendments. that's why they moved the vote to 50. but the filibuster on legislation portion forces the majority to take into account the minority's position and to make the changes necessary to earn their support. so now that the democrats seem to be changing their tune on the legislative filibuster, it might be worth asking, what has caused the democrats to flip-flop? and why no

harry reid's devotion to landra is legendary. perhaps it was her enormous role in his life and utter respect for her as a partner that ceded his unspoken yet strong commitment to women's leadership. maybe it was the role that his mother played raising him out of extreme poverty in searchlight, nevada. whatever the motivation, the results speak for themselves. growing up in searchlight harry reid was given a nickname, pinky. i'm not sure what it referred to and i actually don't think he particularly liked it. but as senator reid lies in state in our nation's capitol this week, this woman, who benefited from his mentorship, and guidance will believe that perhaps that nickname was a premonition of his role in changing the face of leadership in nevada and this country. we all know that senator reid was infamous for not saying goodbye. i, myself, was a recipient of that dial tone on many occasions. but those occasions were because he never failed to pick up the phone when i called for advice. i will miss those phone calls but i will t

pay tribute to my friend harry reid. now, to be clear, and as chuck mentioned in his remarks, i suspect harry himself would not have wanted to sit through this thing. [laughter] area -- harry did not like being the center of attention, it made him the awkward -- him feel awkward. it made him uncomfortable when people said too many nice things about him. as he looks down upon us today, harry will have to socket up -- suck it up, because few people have done more for the state and this country in a driven, brilliant, irascible, deeply good man searchlight, nevada. i first met harry in 2005, after i had been elected to the senate , and harry had been elevated to become democratic leader, and i was the sole african-american in the senate at the time, a mixed kid with a funny name, and given how different our backgrounds were, i did not know how well harry and i would hit it off. he was older, of course. his kids were grown. i did not know what kind of music he liked. i figured he did not listen to jay-z. on issues, he had a

[laughter] i even said to him as he was announcing, i want to have a dinner and invite all of your friends you've served in the house, in the senate and the rest, i don't want to do it. for them to sing your praises, i don't want to do it. save the money, feed the poor. harry reid. his modesty made him unique, you might say in politics but his humility was rooted from a humbled childhood, rising from torchlight to the spotlight and becoming one of the most celebrated consequential senate leaders in history. yet throughout more than four decades of public service and even at the highest level, he never forgot his north start, to fight for working f

let me say also, i was at senator harry reid's funeral in nevada yesterday, which was beautiful, and it reminded me all over again that when mitch mcconnell came in and began abusing the rules and really creating the tyranny of the minority under president obama, senator reid stepped up to make the senate work by making sure that the rules weren't blocking 150 judicial and other nominees of president obama's. and so that took courage to stand up, to do that. this is another moment, we know it is happening. we know that they are blocking. it is a strategy in michigan, they're trying to do everything they can at the state level. the majority in the house and senate and the state, the republicans are trying to do exactly what they have been doing in georgia. it is a concerted effort. it is our job to make sure we do everything possible to make sure that doesn't happen. >> and you raise a good point, senator. a lot of focus is on two senators in particular, but no one really talks about the fact that, you know, republicans won't even allow for a debate on the freedom to vote act. but i -
