News: Dems release budget setting up $3.5 trillion spending bill through reconciliation, but omit debt limit. That sets up brutal fight with GOP; McConnell says he won’t go along with bipartisan debt increase, which will need 10 Senate R votes. Moreover, gov funding expires 10/1 — PolitiTweet.org

G20 member Sen. Young, up for re-election in 2022 and a former NRSC chairman, now says he’s a no on bipartisan infra bill: not “comfortable with the current pay-fors in this legislation nor am I comfortable with Speaker Pelosi’s continued insistence” on tying to reconciliation. — PolitiTweet.org

@collierfernekes you could also overrule the chair/parl on reconciliation, but it's just filibuster reform by another name at the point — PolitiTweet.org

Senate end game -- With no agreement, bipartisan bill clears final filibuster around 8 p.m, tonight final passage sometime Tuesday. Then, 50-hour budget debate and unlimited vote-a-rama and maybe votes on elections bills! https://t.co/FVNQU1IErG @marianne_levine — PolitiTweet.org

Schumer is singing the praises of the Office of Legislative Counsel for working weekends, late nights on bipartisan infra bill No one feels bad for senators that have to work hard, but the past few weeks has been a marathon for staff. It takes a ton of manpower to run the Senate — PolitiTweet.org
