So with a merged Senate bill finally on the table (note that it’s now Nov. 18), leadership is considering filing for cloture on the motion to proceed tomorrow, Brian Beutler reports. That sets up a weekend vote, requiring 60 votes, on whether to end debate on the motion to proceed and probably a vote early next week, requiring a simple majority vote, on the motion itself to bring the bill to the Senate floor.
