Wikipedia says that the filibuster in the United States Senate is a Senate rule that allows a senator to
talk as long as he does not give up the
floor, unless a
special vote is taken to stop debate.
I have observed so many great moments in the gallery — everything from families hanging out on the
floor looking at one of the maps telling stories, to families gathered around the interactive question area
talking about where they want to go and what places are
special to them.»
