Not yet, they voted on cloture:

cloture - The only procedure by which the Senate can vote to place a time limit on consideration of a bill or other matter, and thereby overcome a filibuster.

Under the cloture rule (Rule XXII), the Senate may limit consideration of a pending matter to 30 additional hours, but only by vote of three-fifths of the full Senate, normally 60 votes.

I’m sorry, just reading what I want to I guess, totally overwhelmed by this paganism and distraught since my son goes to boot camp in 2 weeks.
