Democrats Vow to Pass $4.1 Trillion Bill if Bipartisan Infrastructure Bill FailsSean Moran 22 Jul 2021
Sen. Tim Kaine (D-VA) said Wednesday that if the bipartisan infrastructure bill fails, then Democrats could look to pass an even larger, $4.1 trillion bill.
Senate Republicans blocked Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer’s (D-NY) motion to advance the legislative framework for the bipartisan infrastructure bill. The bipartisan proposal does not yet have legislative text.
However, Senate Democrats said Wednesday that they could increase their $3.5 trillion spending bill to include more than physical infrastructure.
Kaine, a member of the Senate Budget Committee, said that “if for some reason the bipartisan version doesn’t work out, then we ought to be looking at a reconciliation bill that’s at $4.1 trillion.”
