    Yes, but also - it doesn't matter. In the Senate you need 50 votes in order to say that something can't be filibustered, then you need 50 votes to pass it. Democrats just did that with the debt ceiling in December. They passed a bill (with 50 votes + VP) that said you only need 50 votes in order to raise the debt ceiling. You can do whatever you want with 50 votes+VP in the Senate.
