Barack Obama came out for ending the Senate filibuster in order to push through major changes in policy and the structure of government, preempting Joe Biden in support of the major legislative process change.

In his eulogy at the funeral for civil rights icon and Georgia Rep. John Lewis, the former president called for voting rights reform, including statehood for the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico, automatic voter registration, restoring voting rights to felons now out of prison, and making Election Day a national holiday.
