The Senate has released text of a bipartisan infrastructure bill. A vote could take place this week.
which contains $550 billion in new spending on roads, bridges and broadband internet access, is the first part of President Biden’s “Build Back Better” campaign. The bill’s text was released late Sunday, but several hurdles remain.The Senate is expected to vote on several amendments to the bill. Since, many senators would love to hitch their pet priorities to the train.
“Given how bipartisan the bill is, and how much work has already been put in to get the details right, I believe the Senate can quickly process relevant amendments and pass this bill in a matter of days,” Schumer said Sunday. “We haven’t done a large, bipartisan bill of this nature in a long time.” There will most likely be at least one more vote in which the bill will have to get the support of 60 senators to break a filibuster. The final vote on passage, typically requires 50 votes.
