NEWS: 11 SENATORS BACK HOUSE PROGRESSIVES IN DEMAND FOR PASSAGE OF ENTIRE BIDEN
AGENDA

 * September 22, 2021

WASHINGTON, Sept. 22 — Sens. Cory Booker (D-N.J.), Kirsten Gillibrand (D-N.Y.),
Mazie K. Hirono (D-Hawaii), Ed Markey (D-Mass.), Jeff Merkley (D-Ore.), Alex
Padilla (D-Calif.), Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.), Brian Schatz (D-Hawaii), Tina Smith
(D-Minn.), Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.), and Sheldon Whitehouse (D-R.I.) issued
the following statement Wednesday on upcoming votes regarding infrastructure and
reconciliation legislation:

“In the coming weeks, Congress has the opportunity to pass the most
consequential economic legislation since the New Deal. We can create millions of
good-paying jobs as we repair our crumbling infrastructure, address the climate
crisis, and finally confront the long-neglected crises facing millions of
low-income and working-class families across this country. But we can accomplish
those goals only if we stick to our original agreement.

“We voted for the bipartisan infrastructure bill with the clear commitment that
the two pieces of the package would move together along a dual track. Abandoning
the $3.5 trillion Build Back Better Act and passing the infrastructure bill
first would be in violation of that agreement. Congress must not undercut the
President’s proposals that will create new opportunities for America’s families
and workers. The House of Representatives should wait to pass the bipartisan
infrastructure bill until the budget reconciliation bill, which enacts the rest
of the President’s Build Back Better agenda, is sent to the President’s desk.

“Now is the time to pass both of these major pieces of legislation. We have no
time to waste. We strongly support the Congressional Progressive Caucus and
other members in the House who have said they intend to vote for the bipartisan
infrastructure bill only once the Build Back Better Act is passed. That is what
we agreed to, it’s what the American people want, and it’s the only path forward
for this Congress.”
