Negotiating compromise solutions, restoring the filibuster (perhaps with a reduced margin) for nominees.

A filibuster requires a cloture motion of 60 votes to be stopped, hence it only takes 41 votes to stop any legislative motion on the floor of the Senate.

The nuclear option would be to reduce the motion to a simple majority.

The nuclear option has already been applied to federal nominees, including Supreme Court Justices.

Yeah, that's part of why Merriam wants to make a new Gang of 14 is the fear that the nuclear option is a hair away.
