Sinema says she opposes $3.5T price tag for spending bill
By Jordain Carney - 07/28/21 02:51 PM EDT

Sen. Kyrsten Sinema (D-Ariz.) said Wednesday that she does not support the $3.5 trillion price tag for a sweeping spending package at the center of President Biden’s legislative agenda.

Sinema, in a statement to the Arizona Republic, said she would vote to start debate on the budget resolution, which lays the groundwork for the Democrat-only spending package, but wants changes, including to the cost of the legislation.

“I have ... made clear that while I will support beginning this process, I do not support a bill that costs $3.5 trillion — and in the coming months, I will work in good faith to develop this legislation with my colleagues and the administration to strengthen Arizona’s economy and help Arizona’s everyday families get ahead,” Sinema said in a statement to the newspaper.

Sinema’s spokesperson didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment about the new statement.

To pass the budget resolution and the subsequent $3.5 trillion bill, all 50 Senate Democrats will need to support the measures.

Since January, Sinema has already voted for a $6.5 trillion increase in our national debt.  For the right payoff, she will vote for another $3.5 trillion while wearing pink pumps, and ankle bracelet, and humming 'Kumbaya'.

LOL!  She carved herself a football field sized area for wiggle room.  She objects to a 3.5 Trillion bill, but is she OK with a 3.4 Trillion bill?
