It means they will take a cloture vote. If there is no cloture then they can invoke rule 19 or they can say they don’t need 60 and just vote

It’s a move for force a vote on ending “debate” aka Demscum grandstanding. Still need 60 votes to close debate. It forces a vote to do so by Thursday. This is the first step in taking the nuclear option on Friday.
