Jan. 6 committee chairman Bennie Thompson tells me Jeffrey Clark “should be” worried about a criminal contempt referral if he doesn’t cooperate; ~20 new subpoenas are coming Monday and Tuesday; he says they’ve “discussed” John Eastman but doesn’t confirm if he’s among them. — PolitiTweet.org

The latest: Democratic leadership is trying to reach House progressives to get a temperature check on BIF, but it’s been a struggle because a bunch of them have been inside a Progressive Caucus meeting room for hours, where phones aren’t allowed. — PolitiTweet.org

Might’ve just witnessed a Democratic lawmaker getting whipped in real time. He answered a call in the halls and it was someone from @SpeakerPelosi’s office. (I overheard because he accidentally had it on speaker.) — PolitiTweet.org

New —> House leaders now want to vote today on passing infrastructure but not Build Back Better. Spurred by a small but pivotal group of centrist Dems demanding a full CBO score before a vote. Progressives are pissed. Unclear infrastructure can pass. https://t.co/18tU0OKsDB — PolitiTweet.org

👀 @RepHuffman on CBO holdouts: “The people who were in a red hot hurry to pass a deficit-inducing [BIF] package and suddenly think a CBO score is a divine instrument that they have to have before voting on Build Back Better — I think that's a pretty disingenuous position.” — PolitiTweet.org
Sahil Kapur @sahilkapur
.@RepHuffman is still not sold on voting for BIF without BBB. “This has been a bit of a curveball,” he says of new leadership plan. “It's unsettling and disruptive and I hope we can get back on that original track.” “It’s still a bit fluid.” — PolitiTweet.org

.@RepJayapal sounds skeptical of voting for BIF sans BBB: “However, if our six colleagues still want to wait for a CBO score, we would agree to give them that time — after which point we can vote on both bills together.” https://t.co/2c5q5VHTxy — PolitiTweet.org

The peculiar situation Dem leaders now face: some of the same holdouts demanding a CBO score showing Build Back Better is fully paid for are also strong supporters of the infrastructure bill, which CBO says is NOT paid for and adds $256 billion to the debt. — PolitiTweet.org

House Democrats don’t have the votes yet to pass BBB/BIF. “It may take a little while to work through the little hiccups here, but I respect all of my colleagues,” Rep. Jim McGovern tells @LisaDNews. “I love them all. And I will love them even more when this is done.” — PolitiTweet.org

Biden just now: "I'm asking every House member, member of the House of Representatives, to vote yes on both these bills, right now. Send the infrastructure bill to my desk. Send the Build Back Better bill to the Senate." "Let's show the world America's democracy can deliver." — PolitiTweet.org

HOYER update on BBB/BIF House will break for dinner after the next vote. There'll be a 1-hour notice if they're returning tonight. "There may well be votes this evening," he says, hoping for them "sooner rather than later." House intends to meet tomorrow, he adds. — PolitiTweet.org

New @SpeakerPelosi letter to Democrats stresses the official score on tax revenues, the other savings that'll be analyzed separately, and says the House is "proceeding" with the "transformative legislation." No specifics here on vote timing. https://t.co/PH0gDMKECb — PolitiTweet.org

W&M Chairman Neal says House plan to lift SALT cap to $72,500 is “sturdy.” He says they arrived at that level to achieve revenue-neutrality. On tweaks: “A little bit on the edges we can maybe do this or that.” He’s encouraging Democrats to direct any issues with it to senators. — PolitiTweet.org

Gottheimer on Build Back Better bill: “There are pieces that are still in flux.” He cites SALT and prescription drug policy as two that are still being worked on. Not taking a position yet. — PolitiTweet.org
