Democrats' standoff continues over budget, infrastructure - Roll Call

The standoff between moderate House Democrats and Pelosi over voting on a budget before an infrastructure bill remains in a stalemate.

The group includes Georgia’s Carolyn Bourdeaux, Hawaii’s Ed Case, California’s Jim Costa, Maine’s Jared Golden, New Jersey’s Josh Gottheimer, Oregon’s Kurt Schrader and Texans Henry Cuellar, Vicente Gonzalez and Filemon Vela.

Their decision to remain opposed to the budget resolution in exchange for a vote on the infrastructure bill leaves the caucus in an ongoing bind that began Friday when the group released a letter saying they “will not consider voting for a budget resolution until the bipartisan infrastructure” bill is signed into law.

Pelosi has said for months that she will not bring the infrastructure bill to the House floor until the Senate advances the multitrillion-dollar reconciliation package that Democrats plan to use to approve an expansion of Medicare, two free years of community college and dozens of other legislative priorities.

I think we are at the point of “do we rip the bandage off slowly, or rip it off in one stroke?”

Because Democrat, regular ole politics.

Were it Republican/Libertarian - those dirty rotten ********!

Back to topic, I don't think this is going as easy as Biden was hoping for.

Yeah, I'm not sure what the 'news' is, here.

Now if, in the end, they actually (permanently) 'block' the bill, that will be news!

That's what I figure will happen, but I hope I'm wrong. Can't have too much progress now can we, because then the Republicans will call us "SoCiAWiStS!"

You think they'll indeed actually block the bill?

I don't know. They have the bipartisan bill that did pass the Senate, it seems to me that the first step is get that through the house and signed into law. Then at least you have something. Then work on the pie-in-the-sky bill that has zero chance of making it through Congress.

It's going to be Nutty Nancy and her appeasement of AOC's Clod Prog Squad that lose the Dems the House next November.
