“Negotiators are still working on whether to hold votes on the Cotton and Rubio amendments or if McConnell will invoke Cloture.”

Translation: They’re working on lining up the votes to kill the Cotton and Rubio amendments. Then they can move to the other amendments as planned. If they can’t line up the votes, McConnell will invoke cloture to protect the democrats. They don’t like voting to support Israel.
