It is not in order, except by unanimous consent, to invoke cloture on a bill before the. Senate has agreed to consider it. On the other hand, there is no limit on the number of times that. the Senate can vote on motions to invoke cloture on a bill, amendment, or other matter it is. considering.
If a motion for cloture is put forward in the Senate, it requires a three fifths vote to pass, and there can be no more than 30 hours of debate on the topic after the motion for cloture passes. In this sense, cloture is used to limit debate and to hasten a vote, rather than to cut off debate entirely.
