30. One of the options with respect to that

which is what many Democrats were asking for, was a "carve-out" for certain legislation to be permitted to pass with a simple majority (not unlike the reconciliation process), and the rest (e.g. budget-related or general regulatory items) would still require the cloture process.

But like anything else, laws can be "enacted" and then "repealed". Wash. Rinse. Repeat.

That is the normal process anyway.
