Joe Biden Delays Signing Infrastructure Bill so Republicans Can Join Ceremony

Charlie Spiering 8 Nov 2021

President Joe Biden still has not signed his $1.2 trillion dollar infrastructure bill, citing his desire to wait until Republicans can join him for the signing ceremony.

The more than 1,200-page bill was passed in the House Friday night.

The president told reporters Friday night he would sign the bill “soon” but said he wanted to time it right so more members of Congress could join him for the signing ceremony.

“I’m not doing it this weekend because I want people who worked so hard to get this done — Democrats and Republicans — to be here when we sign it,” he said.

After the bill passed, Biden left the White House for a weekend at his vacation home at Rehoboth Beach, Delaware:

The president will return to the White House on Monday, but his schedule does not include a signing ceremony for the bill. The only public event for Biden on Monday will be welcoming the Milwaukee Bucks at the White House to honor them for their 2021 NBA championship.

It is unclear which Republicans will join Biden at the White House to celebrate the bill.

Sens. Susan Collins (R-ME), Rob Portman (R-OH), Mitt Romney (R-UT), Lisa Murkowski (R-AK), and Bill Cassidy (R-LA) were actively involved in negotiating the bill with Senate Democrats, giving Biden a major bipartisan victory.

Ultimately, 19 Republican senators were criticized for the infrastructure bill in the Senate, and 13 Republican representatives supported it in the House.

McConnell and McCarthy should have the b*lls to take a public bow for this monstrosity of a slush fund, because they helped pass it.

[LMAO]

This is not being done so those Republicans can join in the celebration but to be able to have a part in the blame down the road

Biden is doing this to further demoralize the GOP base.

Those are DCP disciples. They are NOT republicans.

Yep.  And don't forget the 89,000 new IRS agents, $450k cash payouts for illegals, and new natural gas taxes.

And then there's this:

Article I, Sec 7

All bills for raising revenue shall originate in the House of Representatives

That was one of the arguments for Obummer care. The corrupt SCOTUS didn't want to hear it then and won't hear it now.

Yes, and with a double dose of gloating @skeeter

After all, Mitch McConnell gave the democrats the gift of time to work out their differences.
