Cloture passes on a vote of 80 Yeas, 12 Nay.

Cloture is a parliamentary procedure by which debate is ended and an immediate vote is taken on the matter under discussion.

Veto overridden by a vote of Yea 81, 13 Nay.

Should I be shocked that Booker, Warren, and Sanders voted Nay?

Would not be a bad business except for the dying part. My suggestion is if the older people want to so badly we should send them.
