I asked Adam Kinzinger on Sept 20 if he definitely planned to run for reelection no matter what happens with his seat due to redistricting. "Yeah," he said. "I'm not sweating it." — PolitiTweet.org

In response, Sinema spox said: "We have nothing to add beyond Sen. Sinema's statement yesterday. Further questions about the path forward should be directed to the White House." — PolitiTweet.org

Manu Raju @mkraju

Even though she has not said so explicitly, Democrats who have spoken with Sinema believe she will ultimately support Biden's $1.75 trillion bill, per Dem sources. Sinema's statement Thursday about the proposal had a positive tone, but she stopped short of completely backing it. — PolitiTweet.org

After Reps. Neguse and Jayapal met with Sinema today, Ro Khanna, a progressive caucus member, said on CNN that they left “pretty assured that this deal goes forward,” referring to the larger package. “It’s the first time I felt like that — and I really trust Joe and Pramila.” — PolitiTweet.org

“I'm concerned about Virginia, I'm concerned about the message. I'm concerned about the message it sends to the world right now that is looking at our system of governance with increasing concern about its viability," Phillips said — PolitiTweet.org

"If the president had led us down that hallway onto and on the House floor, I think it would have been close. .... I think with Republican votes, it would have passed,” Phillips added. — PolitiTweet.org

Phillips added: “This is the commander in chief of the United States. When you spend political equity in front of a caucus two times in a month, I think it's got to be awfully explicit -- and be more forthright." — PolitiTweet.org

Biden today didn’t explicitly say that the infrastructure vote should have happened today. Some Dems are faulting him for that. Dean Phillips told us: "I'm not afraid to say I wish he was more explicit.” — PolitiTweet.org

Manu Raju @mkraju

Chuck Schumer would not say if Manchin and Sinema had committed to voting for the Build Back Better legislation or if he thinks they should issue a statement of support “We’re making progress getting the President’s agenda done. That’s it, that’s all I’m saying,” he told us — PolitiTweet.org

The new big day in Washington: Dec. 3. The short-term bill to extend transportation funding will go until Dec. 3. That's the same day that government funding runs out and when Treasury warns the debt ceiling will be hit. — PolitiTweet.org

This is the second delay of the vote -- as progressives are pushing Manchin and Sinema to back the larger proposal. Neither Manchin and Sinema have endorsed the legislation yet — PolitiTweet.org

Manu Raju @mkraju

Amid resistance from progressives over moving ahead with the Senate-passed infrastructure bill, the House is expected to vote tonight on a short-term extension of highway funding, effectively delaying the infrastructure vote, according to a source familiar with the matter — PolitiTweet.org

Manu Raju @mkraju

They also want Manchin and Sinema to endorse larger bill. “This cannot be accomplished without legislative text that can be fully assessed and agreed upon by all parties, including 218 Representatives and all 50 senators in the Democratic Caucus.” — PolitiTweet.org
