Punchbowl News: “This is a huge roll of the dice by Pelosi if she actually goes ahead with this vote. There’s a chance she may lose. She’s been forced to stand down on an infrastructure vote twice already due to progressive opposition. This time, she’s counting on President Joe Biden’s direct intervention to help bring progressives around.”
“But Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-WA), chair of the Congressional Progressive Caucus, reportedly told Biden that she would continue to oppose the bipartisan infrastructure bill unless it’s paired up with a vote on BBB… This is a position progressives have taken for months.”
“We have been told that there are more than a dozen progressives ready to vote against the infrastructure bill… There are more, but these seem to be the firmest no’s, as far as we can tell.”
