Summary
Senate Republicans in bipartisan talks on a $579 billion infrastructure deal are warning Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) that if he goes through with a July 21 vote to start debate on the plan he won’t have their support and his attempt to enforce a deadline will fail. Sen. Susan Collins (R-Maine) said there is “no way” the group of 22 Republicans and Democrats can finish pulling together a bill by July 21 with many issues still outstanding, including how to pay for it. Collins and Sen. Rob Portman (R-Ohio) are among Republicans urging Schumer to delay the procedural vote on a measure championed by President Joe Biden. Learn more about your ad choices.
