Answer (1)

A senator can delay a bill primarily by using a filibuster , which extends debate indefinitely. Invoking cloture is another method that can bring an end to this delay, allowing a vote to proceed. It is important to differentiate these methods from procedural votes that advance a bill or unrelated actions like impeachment. ;
