Senator Jackson is going to be frustrated.

While Jackson does have more than a simple majority, she is missing the requisite 60 to close the debate and avoid a filibuster on her proposal.

On controversial issues, it is advisable for a Senator to work to get 60 votes to ensure that their proposal can get an actual vote in the Senate.
