- Business Insider 22:38August 7, 2020Senate Democrats lukewarm on killing the filibuster even if they win the majority riding a Biden waveTom Williams/CQ Roll Call Former President Barack Obama urged Senate Democrats last week to eliminate the filibuster, which he called a 'Jim Crow' relic.
But several Democrats told Insider they would not vote to end the old rule that they view as an important check on the majority's power. Nixing the filibuster would reduce the Senate to a 'glorified' version of the House, Sen. Joe Manchin of West Virginia said in an interview.
'I think it's a part of Senate tradition, which creates a sobering effect on the body, which is healthy,' added Sen. Dianne Feinstein of California.
The filibuster requires a 60-vote threshold for most bills and was used extensively by Republicans to block the Obama administration's agenda on big issues like climate change and gun control.
Visit Business Insider's homepage for more stories. Barack Obama wants to kill the Senate filibuster. Joe Biden says he's open to abolishing it too if it means advancing his governing agenda.
But the reality that's emerging on Capitol Hill even as the stars appear to be aligning for a possible Democratic sweep in November is that some of the party's most important senators aren't quite there — yet.See the rest of the story at Business InsiderNOW WATCH: Inside London during COVID-19 lockdownSee Also:Nation's top election administrator concerned about absent poll workers, long lines, lax federal funding and low voter registration numbersA new document sent to congressional watchdogs shows how Trump is preparing to hand over the US government if he loses to BidenUS Census Bureau sped up its counting schedule by a month, which could result in the exclusion of communities of color

- Business Insider 22:15July 30, 2020Patient confidence in telehealth is on the rise. Watch now to hear 3 experts discuss what's next for digital medicine.Insider Studios The future of digital health and virtual care was the topic in the latest in a series of panel discussions about technology bridging divides, sponsored by Dell Technologies.
A chief technology officer, a medical-school dean and epidemiologist, and a neonatologist each shared their views about autonomous healthcare, with surprising results.
Watch a video of the full discussion below. Over the past few months, people around the world have been forced to consider which services they regularly seek out are "essential." Few expected that consideration to be applied to in-person medical care.
But as more non-emergency healthcare services are pushed into the realm of "non-essential," telehealth and other digital health tools have stepped in to fill gaps, say the experts who participated in "Autonomy on Call: The Future of Digital Health," a recent virtual panel discussion.See the rest of the story at Business InsiderSee Also:The best blood pressure monitorsScience is discovering how to predict leadership success, and it starts with 5 personality traitsThe best golf irons
