House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is proposing a procedural vote that would set up future passage of two budget measures crucial to Pres. Biden’s domestic agenda.
Nine centrist Democrats said Friday they would oppose the budget resolution until the House first approves their top priority: a $1 trillion package of road, railway and other infrastructure projects. In the face of solid Republican opposition, Democrats can lose no more than three defectors to pass legislation through the closely split chamber.
“As Democrats, we remain committed to working with our colleagues to advance the President’s agenda,” they wrote.
