Whenever they take a "Vote of Cloture" any further discussion, regarding the bill, is eliminated and thus forces a vote sending it to the next body in the government. There is a big question if this is constitutional or not. The goal of the government is to discuss the bill so all parties have a voice and the people get a chance to hear all sides. By forcing the vote, without further discussion, it removes any form of "transparency" and pushes the bill through quickly.
