Sinema Slams Delay of Infrastructure Vote

October 2, 2021 · 4:06 pm ET · Leave a Comment

Sen. Kyrsten Sinema (D-AZ) on Saturday slammed the decision to delay a vote this week on the bipartisan infrastructure deal that she helped negotiate, calling it “inexcusable,” The Hill reports.

Said Sinema: “Over the course of this year, Democratic leaders have made conflicting promises that could not all be kept — and have, at times, pretended that differences of opinion within our party did not exist, even when those disagreements were repeatedly made clear directly and publicly.”

She added: “Canceling the infrastructure vote further erodes that trust.”
