A coalition of conservative groups will announce their support for Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist's effort to end filibusters on judicial nominations.

Note: CSPAN's text is incorrect. Frist is not attempting to end filibusters. Frist is attempting to change the Senate rules to reduce the number of votes needed to end a filibuster from the current 66 to a simple majority. Anyone want to inform CSPAN of the error?
