Question

Filibusters can occur either in the US House of Representatives or the Senate.

Option a: True
Option b: False

Answer 1

Filibusters can only occur in the US Senate, not in the House of Representatives.

Step-by-step explanation:

Filibusters can occur either in the US House of Representatives or the Senate.

A filibuster is a parliamentary procedure and strategy where debate over a proposed piece of legislation is extended and delayed, allowing one or more members to delay or entirely prevent a vote on the proposal. In the United States, only the Senate is able to filibuster. A filibuster can only be ended if a motion to end it is carried by 60 votes (a super majority).

So the correct answer is Option b: False.
