@brianros1 Alternative they had was to recognize from the outset that $1.5 trillion was about the most they might get under reconciliation. And to strip everything that didn't affect 2022 directly out of the voting bill. We don't need for Election Day to be a national holiday, for example. — PolitiTweet.org
