House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) said Wednesday Democrats need to have “confidence” in the Build Back Better reconciliation infrastructure bill to pass the so-called bipartisan package.
“In order for the BIF to pass, we need to have the trust, the confidence, and the reality of the Build Back Better bill,” Pelosi told her whip team during a morning meeting.
President Joe Biden has pressured Pelosi and Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) to vote on the so-called bipartisan infrastructure bill, the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, the Build Back Better Act, or the reconciliation infrastructure bill.
