Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer is now likely to delay a vote on the Build Back Better bill until next year and will instead seek to take action on voting rights legislation before Christmas, NBC News reports.

Politico reports that Schumer met with Sens. Joe Manchin, Tim Kaine, Angus King and Jon Tester this morning to discuss possible rules changes needed to pass an elections reform bill.

“Senate Democrats are escalating pressure on Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV) to get behind using the ‘nuclear option’ to change the filibuster and break a months-long stalemate on voting rights legislation,” The Hill reports.

“The flurry of talks — including dedicating a closed-door caucus lunch to the issue despite a public hyper-focus on passing President Biden’s climate and social spending bill — comes as Democrats are facing intense pressure to pass election legislation though there isn’t yet a clear path forward.”

Sen. Robert Menendez (D-NJ) “slipped getting onto the subway and crashed to the floor, fracturing and dislocating his right shoulder, the side he writes with,” NJ.com reports.

Said Menendez afterwards: “It’s called being too responsible, all to get to the vote and to get to another hearing. The hearings will always be there and the votes will always be there. Good lesson.”
