Again with the ridiculous assumptions. Are you telling me you have not seen and heard the daily reports of AOC and "the squad" complaining that Democrats are settling for too little?

Let's see what a simple Google search will turn up. Do you ever check to see if what you are saying is true? That was rhetorical no need to answer, we all know the answer by now.

The left is pushing Biden to spend more. It’s a sound strategy.

Infrastructure Bill Now Faces Restive House Progressives

Dems will slam all they want into the upcoming Reconciliation bill. Only need 51 votes to pass that. Originally Posted by royamcr

Manchin: No guarantee reconciliation package will pass

Speaker Nancy Pelosi has made clear she will not hold a vote on the bill in the House until the Democrat-led $3.5 trillion budget reconciliation bill passes the Senate.

Sen. Joe Manchin would not guarantee Sunday that a Democratic-led reconciliation package would garner the necessary votes for passage, even as he predicted the bipartisan infrastructure package would pass the Senate this week.

If 80-90% of it is infrastructure related, and the other 10-20% is pork, that is a successful bill. Originally Posted by royamcr

So that's a hard fail, right?

You are asking him to put logic, reason and common sense above party loyalty. Ain't gonna happen. The man has shown himself to be incapable of admitting when he he is wrong.


I ask if child care and Medicaid should be part of infrastructure and and can't give me a simple answer of no.


Some people would rather be judged as fools than stray from the party line. And yes, that applies to the right as well.

Heard about this new definition of infrastructure?

The bipartisan infrastructure bill includes a provision that would require auto manufacturers to equip "advanced alcohol monitoring systems" in all new cars.
Buried in the massive proposal—which is already longer than 2,700 pages—is a section titled, "ADVANCED IMPAIRED DRIVING TECHNOLOGY," which mandates new vehicles include "a system that … passively and accurately detect[s] whether the blood alcohol concentration of a driver of a motor vehicle is equal to or greater than the blood alcohol concentration" of .08, in which case the system would "prevent or limit motor vehicle operation." Automobile manufacturers would have a three-year grace period to comply with the regulation.
