The Senate voted Wednesday to begin debate on a $1.2 trillion bipartisan
infrastructure package just hours after negotiators from both parties
announced they had reached agreement on the key points of the bill.
Lawmakers voted 67-32 to end the filibuster on a motion to proceed to
the measure, with 17 Republicans joining all 50 Democrats to vote to
begin debate.
Wednesday’s vote is likely to begin several days of attempts by senators
from both parties to amend the bill before expected votes to end debate
— which requires 60 ‘yes’ votes — and final passage early next week.
The announcement that an agreement had been reached earlier Wednesday
was panned by former President Donald Trump, who called the package a
“terrible deal.”
“Hard to believe our Senate Republicans are dealing with the Radical
Left Democrats in making a so-called bipartisan bill on
‘infrastructure,’ with our negotiators headed up by SUPER RINO Mitt
Romney,” raged the 45th president in an emailed statement.
“This will be a victory for the Biden Administration and Democrats, and
will be heavily used in the 2022 election. It is a loser for the USA, a
terrible deal, and makes the Republicans look weak, foolish, and dumb.
It shouldn’t be done.”
The Biden administration trumpeted the bill, which includes $550 billion
in new spending on public works projects, as “the largest federal
investment in public transit ever” and “the largest federal investment
in passenger rail since the creation of Amtrak.”
