Answer 2

Answer:

Cloture

Explanation:

Filibuster introduced in 1850 , is a strategic parliamentary way employed by the senate to delay action on a bill or other proceedings.

It is practically applied when two or more senators hide under the rules and purposely extend debate on a topic in order to avert a bill being passed and this can last as long as 12hours , 42minutes.

The only formal procedure that can break the filibuster is the cloture rule , which is a vote by the senators to place a time limit on senate activities during a senate meeting.
