I wonder how the people of Massachusetts will feel about this? http://www.govtrack.us/congress/vote.xpd?vote=s2010-220Roll Call Votes 111th Congress: Senate Vote #220 (Jul 27, 2010) Cloture vote on the Motion to Proceed to S. 3628 Purpose: Cloture votes are used in the Senate to end debate and move to a final up-or-down vote on the matter. The Senate cannot move forward until cloture is agreed to. Voting against cloture is essentially a filibuster. Because it takes 3/5ths of senators to achieve cloture, it is used as a tool by those against the matter to avoid the final simple-majority vote. Read more at Filibusted.us.
