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.
The filibuster is related to cloture, a rule adopted almost 100 years ago requiring a two-thirds vote. At times this was two-thirds of those voting; for a limited time, it was two-thirds of membership. In 1975, the Senate reduced the number of votes needed to invoke cloture to three-fifths (60) of Senate membership.
