Show Notes

Democrats in Washington are vowing to press ahead with a possible vote this week on President Joe Biden’s scaled-down Build Back Better package, now carrying a $1.75 trillion price tag. It comes after West Virginia Senator Joe Manchin said Monday it’s time to vote on the infrastructure bill instead, which was seen as a signal that the key moderate is wavering on the larger package. One person who has been speaking regularly with Manchin is New York Senator Kirsten Gillibrand, who joined us to talk about the White House’s priority bill and more.
