About this vote

Cloture is a vote to end debate; most bills need 60 votes to get it. The bill sets the degree of care a health care practitioner must provide to a child born alive after an abortion or attempted abortion; cloture on the motion to proceed was rejected, so the Senate did not move to the bill.
