Earlier cloture vote to cut off debate on Hagel/Martinez amendment failed, 38 to 50-some.

Hagel and Martinez voted NO.

Current vote (in progress) is on Frist's version of the border security S2454.

The Republicans are hanging tight on not permitting cloture because of attempts to restrict the number of amendments on these bills.

This is a good thing, folks. Sen. Kyl indicated that the whole issue is going back to committee and will be ironed out their before it comes back in about a months or so.

The process is working. Perservere.
