"I was not a negotiator of the infrastructure bill -- I was so happy they were, and I praised them for it, and I voted for it, and it's going to be great," Kaine said. "This voting bill is as important or more to many of us than the infrastructure bill. The time is nigh” — PolitiTweet.org

Looks like there's no off-ramp here for Democrats. Schumer is full-steam ahead “Long odds are no excuse for this chamber to avoid this important issue. Again, members of this chamber were elected to debate and to vote. We’re going to vote.” — PolitiTweet.org

Schumer says "we must consider and vote on" changes to Senate rules when Republicans block the election/voting package. — PolitiTweet.org

"Democrats will continue to fight on this issue until we succeed," Schumer says. Democrats currently lack the votes to change the rules to pass this due to Manchin/Sinema. — PolitiTweet.org

Schumer filled the amendment tree and then filed cloture. This sets up a 60-vote threshold vote as late as Thursday, although Democrats expect this vote to happen tomorrow. It will fail due to GOP opposition — PolitiTweet.org

@Olivia_Beavers You'll hear a lot about what Republicans COULD work with Biden on. But there's no House-Senate unified agenda and funding the government and avoiding default with a Dem president and divided GOP will be tough enough — PolitiTweet.org

"Jan. 6 was a dark day in the history of our nation that was overcome by the courage" of Capitol Police + Congress. "With this anniversary passed, I call on my former colleagues in the Senate to do as you did before: Uphold the right of states to conduct and certify elections" — PolitiTweet.org

During his meeting with Democrats, Biden told the senators that he doesn’t think McConnell is comparable to civil rights-era segregationists and asked Republicans which team they want to be on when it comes to voting rights. @lbarronlopez @marianne_levine https://t.co/fbgK1iExHv — PolitiTweet.org

@btc2008 That is what the resolution says. Not everyone in the Senate seems to agree that it was an insurrection, so it's interesting that no one objected to this. — PolitiTweet.org

“The point he made is the Senate rules are not sacrosanct,” Sen. Tim Kaine (D-Va.) said after the visit. “President Biden, speaking as a senator who saw rules changes a lot, talked about the fact that rules change because times change.” — PolitiTweet.org

Manchin was the second blow. Many Dems didn’t know ahead of Biden meeting that Sinema had already doomed filibuster push in the moments before the Biden meeting “People were just surprised when we went in there. Because no one knew she was on the floor speaking” — PolitiTweet.org
