Kill Switch: The Rise of the Modern Senate and the Crippling of American Democracy

Kill Switch provides an insider’s view of how a radical white minority of Americans have used the U.S. Senate, 'the world's greatest deliberative body,’ to hijack American democracy. The book illuminates the history of the filibuster and its role in empowering a minority of white conservatives to block legislation, thwarting progressive agendas and changes that threaten their power.
