On This Week, Portman says the bipartisan infrastructure bill is “90 percent” there but in deadlock over public transit funding. Looking like that Monday target will be hard to make — PolitiTweet.org

@lbarronlopez @marianne_levine Sanders: “I voted for it yesterday, didn’t I?” Still, all Dems seem likely to back it.
