Some senators have agreed on a compromise plan to improve the filibuster situation. But it falls woefully short, mainly just requiring some disclosure and speaking activity.

.I'm all for transparency and continuous speaking. But let me again suggest one additional change: limit filibusters to three for each party each year in the hope that parties will then be more circumspect. Perhaps also permit only one of these to be used in a confirmation vote.
