The answer is cloture.

Explanation for each option:

  1. Legislative hold: This is a procedure where a senator can prevent a motion from reaching a vote on the Senate floor. It is not a method for halting a filibuster; rather, it is a tool that can be used to delay or block legislative action.

  2. Legislative agenda: This refers to the set of policies or issues that are prioritized for discussion and action by a legislative body. It is not a method for stopping a filibuster.

  3. Cloture: This is the correct answer. Cloture is a procedure used in the Senate to bring a debate to an end, thereby overcoming a filibuster. It requires a supermajority vote, typically three-fifths of the Senate (60 out of 100 senators), to invoke cloture and proceed to a vote on the matter at hand.

  4. Race-based public service: This term does not relate to the legislative process of halting a filibuster. It might refer to public service initiatives aimed at addressing racial disparities, but it is not relevant to the context of Senate procedures.
