Will Kevin McCarthy Whip GOP Against Infrastructure?

Playbook: “The House minority leader has made clear he opposes BIF, but he’s also under increased pressure to take the next step and urge his members to oppose it. On Tuesday, one of his allies, Republican Study Committee Chair Jim Banks (R-IN), became the latest member to call on McCarthy to muscle votes in opposition. McCarthy is also getting an earful from the House Freedom Caucus, whose support he needs to become speaker someday.”

“And don’t forget about Donald Trump, who ironically called for a big infrastructure bill as president but is now demanding they oppose the one Democrats are pitching. Will Trump lean on McCarthy to do more?”
