What this vote does
On the Cloture Motion No bill link is listed for this roll call in the source feed. Recorded outcome: Cloture Motion Agreed to.
Why this matters
- This is an official, on-the-record vote — it’s what members actually did, not a quote or a headline.
- Roll-call questions are often procedural. We surface the underlying context so you can follow the legislative steps.
- Some roll calls are about procedures or motions that don’t reference a bill directly in the data feed — they can still shape what happens next.
- Tip: The official roll-call question text is usually the best clue to what rule or step was in play.
- In the Senate, procedural votes can still matter a lot because they determine whether debate continues, ends, or moves to a final decision.
Result
Official result: Cloture Motion Agreed to
Required threshold (best-effort)
Three-fifths (typically of the full chamber)
Note: The Senate often requires 3/5 of all Senators duly chosen and sworn for cloture. The official record may apply special rules.
Threshold check (computed)
