Jayapal Says She Can Block Infrastructure Bill

Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-WA) says she has the votes to block the bipartisan infrastructure bill Monday because the reconciliation bill is nowhere close to being finished, Punchbowl News reports.

At around 5 p.m. this evening, Jayapal exited Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s office suite and seemed to indicate that Pelosi was on the brink of delaying the infrastructure bill.

Said Jayapal: “don’t think that the speaker is going to bring a bill up that is going to fail.”
