c*****r 发帖数: 8227 | 1 The Senate just voted not to move ahead with Senate Majority Leader Harry
Reid’s proposal for raising the debt ceiling, which included $2.2 trillion
in spending cuts. The vote was 50-49, with 60 votes need to advance the bill.
But by the time of the vote, the result was anti-climactic; the real action
is unfolding far from the Senate floor, as leaders of both parties try to
hammer out the final details of a deal by day’s end to raise the debt
ceiling from the current $14.29 trillion. That would be accompanied by
deficit cuts of about $3 trillion.
Still, the Senate’s “cloture” vote was important, because it keeps alive
the Reid bill as a legislative vehicle for the final deal. Given the
cumbersome rules of the Senate, that could be critical as Washington
scrambles to raise the debt limit by Tuesday, when the Treasury Department
says the U.S. government will begin running out of money to pay all its
bills.
In one quirk of the Senate rules, Mr. Reid voted against his own bill, which
allows him to keep it alive. | h******8 发帖数: 3778 | | b*****d 发帖数: 61690 | 3 美国参议院有很多奇怪的规则。如果参议院多数党领袖不反对自己的bill话。这个bill
就dead.如果新的bill出来,就要又等一段时间。所以有的时候,reid必须投票反对自
己的bill,如果他想接着投票的话。
