House Could Still Debate, Vote On BBB Today Or Tomorrow: FOX

US

Chad Pergram at FOX Newstweets a lengthy threadon the potential route to a vote on the Build Back Better social spending bill in the House today or tomorrow. Some select comments below:

  • "[...] unclear IF there will be a vote today. Moderate Dems are still pushing for information from the CBO. [...] we may be staring at a "Friday Night Special" for a vote on the bill or a weekend vote. [....] it's amplified now considering how onerous December could be for members as they wrestle with the debt limit and a potential government shutdown.[...] regardless of when the House votes, the Senate must tackle the measure in December. That means the bill gets bounced back to the House to sync up IN JANUARY."
  • Dems relying on v. narrow majority in House to get BBB through. Could take major arm-twisting, given difficulty in getting bipartisan infra bill through (and that was with some GOP support).
