Biden Backtracks on Infrastructure Plan/Reconcilliation
2021-06-27
[CNBC] I am capable of copying and pasting parts of many articles, but not at the CNBC site. Apparently, Joe didn't mean what he said.
Does your browser provide the option for a reader view? I find that makes copying much easier. In the meantime, here are what CNBC thinks are the key points:
  • President Joe Biden on Saturday said he doesn’t plan to veto the bipartisan infrastructure bill if it comes without a reconciliation package.

  • The president’s statement walks back a declaration last week that he would refuse to sign the bipartisan legislation unless the two bills came in tandem.

  • “That statement understandably upset some Republicans, who do not see the two plans as linked,” the president said in a statement.

#2  We should start a pool of how many pages it is. I'm betting over 4,000 pages and they will have only 2 hours to read and comprehend it.

#1  refusing to sign and vetoing are actually different

by saying 'no veto' it DOES NOT mean he would sign this infrastructure bill

also, the infrastructure bill has not be written, it is just an outline at this point - I suspect there will be pages and pages and pages of pork barrel stuff in it
