So the debate begins at noon and not the actual vote? (Original Post) mobeau69 Dec 2018 OP
If you have some provider on the list, you can watch the Senate on CSPAN2 on their website. BumRushDaShow Dec 2018 #1

I haven't tried this lately, but this is what their page says:

Livestreams of all federal government events covered by C‑SPAN will continue to be available online with easy access from our home page to all visitors--no sign-in necessary. Watch live (or on demand) all House and Senate debates, committee hearings, events from the executive branch, the courts, and election coverage--plus C‑SPAN's signature, viewer-interactive, interview program Washington Journal--via C‑SPAN.org's easy-to-spot highlighted area, "Congress, White House & the Courts," on our homepage.

I know they have all the archives from there. Not sure if it shows live coverage although sometimes if it is something critical, they will.

Looks like they're still holding the vote open. They need to get their asses in gear and dump it back to the house w/o the idiots wall. Time is running out!

including "stopping the clock".

(I usually don't like linking directly to Wikipedia but I know the rule is buried in Riddick's Rules of Procedure - I actually downloaded a PDF copy of it a couple years ago ).
