About this vote

A cloture motion ends debate so the Senate can move toward a vote, and it takes three-fifths of the Senate. The measure is a bill to amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 so that employees with health coverage under TRICARE or the Veterans Administration are not taken into account in determining which employers the employer mandate under the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act applies to.
