I don’t. I don’t respect Republicans at all. Those six were carefully counted and they did send a message with their vote. It passed. We’re fine.

Exactly. The ignorance of the people on this site is way too deep to understand. Those Ds voted no bc they could…Pelosi knew she had the votes. She’s one of the most badass effective Speakers this country has ever seen and so she knew she could get it done and let people in her party send the message they wanted to. It was all perfect.

What message did they want to send to their constituents?

They sent a message to everyone: they'd rather Flint not get clean water if they don't also get the bill they want

Unluckily for your Fox talking points, she’s actually pretty active on twitter. You can read her own words.

Sorry. Democrat here. This reads like a petulant child. If that’s her argument, she should have negotiated raising the lead pipe amount four months ago. Now she’s scrambling for reasons to explain her vote on Twitter

Not a federal problem. Pay for lead pipe replacement locally.

Not ever problem has to be socialized at the federal level.

I'm fine with that mentality but will point out that Texas' electrical grid problem and rural broadband should be treated the same way.

Yes! Now you're getting it.

Local problems. Stay local.

Ok, so the federal government shouldn't help pay for rebuilding after hurricanes in Florida, Texas, North Carolina; shouldn't pay to rebuild the Texas energy infrastructure and shouldn't help rebuild in Tornado alley - all red areas?

Ok, I am fine with that. Tell the governors or those areas and states to stop requesting federal assistance and aid.

Correct. It should apply to all states.

Stop hitting up DC for all your wants .

I can't be anymore clear.

Wow really? You that naive?
There's even more waste, mismanagement and corruption at the local level than there is at the state or federal levels.

No, there isn't.

Unbelievable. Texas should not get any of the infrastructure monies since their congressional representation did not vote for it. Time for actions to have consequences.

Two of the Squad are from the heart of New York and representing their districts - they shouldn't get infrastructure monies either. After all - they didn't vote for it. Time for actions to have consequences. Just like the time AOC scared off a billion-dollar Amazon HQ before she had even taken the oath of office.

Great, cut Manchin, Sinema, and all but the handful of Republicans out of it too.

You know Manchin and Sinema both voted in support of the Infrastructure Act right?

https://www.senate.gov/legislative/LIS/roll_call_lists/roll_call_vote_cfm.cfm?congress=117&session=1&vote=00314

Manchin and Sinema unnecessarily and pointlessly delayed it and held it up and caused many needed parts of it to be gutted.
You did know that, right?

That will destroy Texas, Florida, Oklahoma, Missouri, Nebraska and North Carolina.

But ok. I am good with it.

You realize you're...talking about two different bills right? The progressives really did a number tying these bills together - half the public doesn't even realize there's a difference and those programs they were arguing over haven't passed.

TLDR - Manchin and Sinema didn't delay anything related to Infrastructure. It already passed back in July in the Senate.
