This is confusing. Sen Stevens said voting for cloture would allow the amendments to be considered, which would continue the debate.

Debate won't continue- Reid will remove the bill from consideration, effectively killing it. There are other bills the Senate needs to consider.

If they voted for cloture, debate would continue for a little while, and then the POS would pass.
