Pelosi said last night Ds will have do "fewer things well" in big bill So I tried to pin her down on if that means they'll have to drop something, like Medicare expansion, paid leave, etc. She said she hopes those stay and adds: "Mostly we would be cutting back on years" https://t.co/15U2PlKICu — PolitiTweet.org

But this is different than her message last night. Pelosi suggested in her letter that they have to “fewer things well” in the bill. Unclear what they may drop. She said “I hope” they won’t have to drop anything — PolitiTweet.org

Manu Raju @mkraju

Asked Pelosi if they’d have to drop any of the key pillars of their plan to reduce price tag — universal pre-K, child tax credit, tuition free community college, paid family leave or Medicare expansion — and she suggests they will instead look at paring back the number of years — PolitiTweet.org
