Title: Nomination of Howard Lutnick to be Secretary of Commerce

Vote Smart's Synopsis:

Vote to invoke cloture on President Trump's nomination of Howard Lutnick, of New York, to be Secretary of the Department of Commerce.

NOTE: INVOKING CLOTURE REQUIRES A 3/5 MAJORITY OF THE SENATE. IT IS NOT A VOTE ON THE PASSAGE OF THE PIECE OF LEGISLATION, BUT LIMITS FURTHER DEBATE TO 30 HOURS. CLOTURE IS TYPICALLY USED TO END A FILIBUSTER. A FAILED CLOTURE VOTE OFTEN PREVENTS THE LEGISLATION FROM EVER COMING TO A VOTE.
