President Trump has repeatedly pressed Senate Republicans to invoke the nuclear option and eliminate the legislative filibuster, citing stalled priorities such as the SAVE America Act and government funding measures amid ongoing appropriations disputes. Majority Leader John Thune and multiple senators, including John Curtis and Lisa Murkowski, have rejected the move, stating insufficient support exists within the conference to change Senate rules by simple majority. Some members, including Ron Johnson and Mike Lee, have signaled openness in targeted scenarios, while 2026 GOP Senate candidates face questions on the issue as a potential litmus test. The filibuster remains in place, with earlier nuclear option uses limited to nominations rather than legislation.
