By a 50-49 party line vote, the Senate has passed the framework for a budget reconciliation, up to 3.5 trillion, infrastructure bill. This bill is the partisan bill that does not need a republican to vote for it to pass. The method was used to bypass the filibuster because the there are no republican Senators who would vote for this human infrastructure bill because it goes against their ideology of smaller government and only working for the wealthy. This current democratic partisan infrastructure bill is designed to specifically help the working middle poor class who has seen little to no attention for far too long.
The importance of passing this framework is that now the individual committees in the Senate can begin to flush out the body of the bill specifically and fully. It also puts the House on notice that both the bipartisan and partisan bills concerning infrastructure are on track to being passed over to them in due course. Everything is progressing as planned as far as getting both bills to the House for them to put their own legislation with the Senate version and coming out with a product that will pass both the House and Senate and be signed into law by our new progressive president, Joe Biden.
In combination, the 2 infrastructure bills will spend up to 4.7 trillion dollars toward upgrading our society without any giveaways to the wealthy. These 2 bills will address the needs of our huge amazing working middle poor class and will advance our society in ways that have been impossible heretofore. This is because we democrats have put ordinary Americans first and in our legislation the down payment on our futures is about to be realized at some point next month. I am proud to be alive to see this monumental approach to correcting the trajectory of our society into a more equitable and promising one about to bear fruit before our very eyes.
