I was busy and unable to watch on C-Span. What happened to the “filibuster”? I don’t mean, that cloture was voted overwhelmingly. I found that out. I mean, why were Mike Lee and others unable to take and hold the floor? Wasn’t that their plan? Did they try to do that? What happened? Please, if you know...

Cloture was invoked before the filibuster could begin. People from AZ to MS to NC must be elated with their senators.
