About this vote
S. 2012 is described as an original bill to provide for the modernization of the energy policy of the United States, and for other purposes. Cloture is the Senate procedure for ending debate on a measure, and for legislation it generally needs three-fifths of senators, or 60 votes; a Yes vote supports ending debate.
