Procedurally, do they have to vote again on cloture after the bill is debated and amended on the Senate floor? Or will it take just 51 votes to get out of the Senate?

They have to vote once to start debate (60 votes), once to end debate (60 votes) and then once on the bill, if it gets through both (50 votes).
