Republican Sen. Toomey says he opposes Chipman nomination for ATF. Pretty much ensures Dems need to put up all 50 yes votes. Several undecided but no clear warning sign he might lose on the floor — PolitiTweet.org

Rs not thrilled about Wednesday vote to advance infrastructure Schumer is “trying to put pressure on the group to either put up or shut up. But I don’t think it’s the kind of bill you can just look at and vote on in 24 hours,” Capito says, guessing there won’t be a CBO score — PolitiTweet.org

Schumer also sets Wednesday deadline for Budget Committee to finalize its resolution setting up $3.5 trillion spending/tax bill. So next week will be most important yet for Biden's jobs and families plan — PolitiTweet.org

Big news after months of negotiations Schumer says Senate will vote to advance toward bipartisan infrastructure bill on Wednesday next week. Hardball move to force agreement by then (no agreement expected today). Will need 60 votes -- and 10 Republicans -- to advance — PolitiTweet.org

The Senate's bipartisan infrastructure negotiators are unlikely to meet their self-imposed Thursday deadline, according to two sources familiar with the talks. ⁦@marianne_levine⁩ https://t.co/eZfFZ8N8vR — PolitiTweet.org

@marianne_levine Asked afterward if that argument appeals to him, Johnson responded: “No.” “All I see is a greater chance for much larger deficits,” Johnson said. “I’m not on board with this strategy of: Let’s do this and complicate their ability to pass reconciliation. I don’t agree with that.” — PolitiTweet.org

Burgess Everett @burgessev

@marianne_levine Pressure coming from right, though. Sen. Johnson asked his party what working with Dems will get them in the end, attendees said. McConnell later responded that Rs can’t control Ds’ separate spending plans, urging them to look at Portman’s effort as separate from reconciliation — PolitiTweet.org

@marianne_levine Tester is skeptical that McConnell would sink it “I don’t think it would be smart for him to do that, so I don’t think he will,” Tester said. “It’s better for them to pass the bipartisan bill and let the Democrats fight it out on the $3.5 trillion bill.” — PolitiTweet.org

Burgess Everett @burgessev

One interesting (strange?) development is Democrats now think McConnell might go for bipartisan deal, or at least let it through, because some Senate Rs want it “His problem is that many of his members like what’s in it,” Murphy said. https://t.co/JhPoigVPUF @marianne_levine — PolitiTweet.org

Some more details on health care, per Dems Would add dental, vision and hearing to Medicare but not change eligibility age (at least, at the moment) Expand home care, extend ACA expansion, reduce Rx drug costs and expand Medicaid coverage to states that haven't done so yet — PolitiTweet.org

Tax reform would increase corporate rate and also rate on high-earning individuals. Would also include more tax enforcement and international tax reform No tax increases on: Families making under $400k yearly, small businesses, or family farms — PolitiTweet.org
