The legislative filibuster, which&nbsp;, is a rule that requires 60 votes for most legislation to pass in the Senate.“The filibuster has deep roots in racism, and it should not be permitted to serve that function, or to create a veto for the minority,” Warren, who is white, told Axios on Thursday. “In a democracy, it’s majority rules.”Warren added that the Founders didn’t intend for the filibuster to be implemented in Senate legislative procedure, Axios reported. Rather, it was designed to give Southern states the ability to veto any anti-slavery or civil rights law they opposed, Warren said.Warren first announced her opposition to the filibuster in 2019, CNN&nbsp;.However, Warren filibustered &nbsp;in June, CNN analyst Scott Jennings&nbsp;.
