Democrats Abandon Infrastructure Vote Again
October 28, 2021 at 6:37 pm EDT By Taegan Goddard 2 Comments
"SNIP......
“House Democratic leaders on Thursday abandoned a second attempt to clear the Senate-passed bipartisan infrastructure bill as progressives held firm to their refusal back it without a concrete agreement on a separate social spending package,” The Hill reports.
“It’s the second time House Democratic leadership has punted the bill and it came after President Biden made a rare visit to the Capitol to beseech House Democrats to help him advance his agenda.”
Punchbowl News: “The House will come back next week to try again to advance Biden’s agenda.”
Axios: “Democrats had hoped to to use House approval of the infrastructure bill to boost their candidates in the gubernatorial races in New Jersey and Virginia on Nov. 2.”
.......SNIP"

2. The deal was always that the two bills
go together.
It isn't the House's fault that the Senate is being obstructed.

3. Hard to call this "progressive."

6. Hard to call the obstruction "moderate"
Since vast majorities of the country support what's in the BBB bill, especially those in West Virginia.
Nothing moderate about being the vanishing minority radical holding up passage.

9. Do Progressives think they'll have more sway after McAuliffe loses?
Are they completely insane?

11. Progressive Caucus
Is starting to remind me of the Tea Party.
Seriously
Scorched earth “all or nothing” attitudes were very damaging to the REpublicans. These tactics are quite obviously damaging us now.

12. Ya. This kneecapping is intentional. Watch the spin.
"Manchin! & Sinema! . Nothing's better than something." "Really, trust us"
Sabatours from 2016 on thru today.
When just a couple months ago they were all endorsing the woman who referred to President Biden as a"bowl of shit", does the move surprise anyone?
Sorry America.
SAY ALL THEIR FUKING NAMES.

20. I thought the progressives were going to be smart about
this but they played right into the Republican's hands. I am so disappointed in Cori Bush, she needs to get out of the limelight and be a team player on this. I want all those progressive programs but it has been clear for months that they need to back down and give the president a win.

26. Work your whole life so the government can tell you at the end That you cannot have vision or dental insurance because we have to think of the billionaires. This is indefensible. This is what shit hole countries do.

maybe it's just me, but I have always considered it an individual's responsibility to take care of their medical needs.
