McConnell says no GOP senator will back Biden's $4 trillion infrastructure plan
Fox News
Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., said Monday that he did not expect any Republican senator to support President Biden’s push for a $4 trillion spending package on infrastructure and other projects.
"If they can’t get all their ducks in a row, to use reconciliation again they’ll have to have every single Democrat in the Senate, all of them, in line, in lockstep, in order to do that. A number of them are saying they agree with us," McConnell said at a press conference. "I think it’s worth talking about, but I don’t think there’ll be any Republican senators, none, zero, for the $4.1 trillion grab bag, which has infrastructure in it, but a whole lot of other stuff." A group of moderate GOP senators led by Sen. Shelley Moore Capito, R-W.Va., have called for a $568 billion infrastructure project. White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki signaled that proposal was the "beginning of a discussion" on bipartisan legislation.More Related News
