The Stackhouse Filibuster

Series 2, episode 17

Written by Aaron Sorkin, Peter McCabe

Directed by Bryan Gordon

Originally Aired On: Wednesday, 14 March 2001

The West Wing marathon continues with another choice episode - this time the 17th episode from the second series. The President's staff wait impatiently for an elderly cantankerous Democratic Senator to yield the floor as he stages a marathon filibuster hoping to stave off a vote on Bartlet's Family Wellness Act bill while Toby is suspicious of the Vice President's sudden interest in supporting another bill tightening fuel-emission standards.
