@heatherscope @sarahnferris This comes as new doubts emerge about whether all 50 Senate Dems will support a $3.5T bill (Sinema says she won't). Senate Dems now want reassurances that everyone is together Rep. Pocan: "All [Sinema] did is ensure that we don’t have enough trust unless they both move together" — PolitiTweet.org

@heatherscope @sarahnferris On other side are progressives, counting on Pelosi to make sure she holds firm “It would be nice if we didn’t need a backstop, that in the Senate we had our own adherence to our priorities among the Democrats. But she’s there,” said Sen. Hirono. “I say: Good. Thank you Nancy" — PolitiTweet.org

@heatherscope @sarahnferris Our look at state of House/Senate relations shows mod pressure on Pelosi right around the corner to drop her blockade on bipartisan bill “Strike while the iron’s hot,” said Rep. Slotkin. “If you get a deal, and if it’s significant money, don’t let it sit. It does not age well" — PolitiTweet.org

New: In wake of bipartisan deal, Bernie told Senate Ds: We’re with you on this, so you better be with us on our $3.5 trillion plan He then dialed up Pelosi to back up her position: No bipartisan until reconciliation https://t.co/PN2l3bBRwK @heatherscope @sarahnferris — PolitiTweet.org

McConnell calls $550 billion in ew infra spending a "focused compromise." He also wants lots of amendment votes, which is basically always the rub on a big bill that a president will sign — PolitiTweet.org
