Punchbowl News: “Democrats are still working on their reconciliation bill and they don’t know when it’s going to be done. They can’t get the process started today in the House as the leadership would’ve liked, so they’ll get back to us when they can start. There’s a huge push to get this done by the end of the week. The odds of that happening right now are improving, but far from certain.”
“One thing to watch — If the reconciliation package is approved by the House and then Pelosi turns around and brings up the infrastructure bill for a floor vote right away, Democrats may lose any possible GOP support, they privately acknowledge. So they’re back to a three-vote margin with no room for error. This seems like a real possibility.”
Politico: “Democrats are zeroing in on a deal to lower prescription drug prices that the party hopes it could add to President Joe Biden’s $1.75 trillion social spending bill as soon as Monday.”
CNN: “Progressives meanwhile signaled on a private call this afternoon they are expected to be on board behind both bills.”
