after Pelosi walked out of negotiating a bill with Trump about 4 years ago. I hope this is their last term.

"who"

Still looking for that info ... but I suspect these a 9 of them ...


"Here are the House Republicans who say that they will or may vote in favor of the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act:

Nebraska Rep. Don Bacon: “I intend to vote for the hard infrastructure bill as long as it’s not combined with the Bernie Sanders $3.5T bill,” Bacon said in a statement. “Our constituents want to see Congress actually solve a problem and stop the rabid partisanship they see every night on TV.”

Pennsylvania Rep. Brian Fitzpatrick, a co-chairperson of the bipartisan Problem Solver’s Caucus, told multiple outlets that he plans to vote for the bill.

New York Rep. John Katko: Katko’s office told reporters at Forbes and the Hill that he will vote for the infrastructure bill.

Illinois Rep. Adam Kinzinger said on CNN this week: “I think we need to allow members to vote on a bipartisan bill as they wish. There is concern, of course, with what you’re seeing on the Democratic side, where progressives are saying we have to pass the $3.5 trillion before we can even talk about this $1.5 trillion … Members of the Republicans that want to vote for the bipartisan bill, you shouldn’t whip against it. I intended to vote for it. I think there will be a number of people joining me."

New York Rep. Nicole Malliotakis: A spokesperson for Malliotakis said Friday that she is “in the process of going through the bill to see how it impacts her district” but is “leaning towards a yes so long as the infrastructure package stands on its own.”

New York Rep. Tom Reed: "I'm a hard yes," Reed said on CNN on Friday. "It's a good bill. It's a compromise bill. That, to me, is good legislation, sound policy." He estimated that 10 to 20 Republicans will support the bill.

Michigan Rep. Fred Upton: A spokesperson for Upton said Friday that he will support the $1.2 trillion infrastructure bill.

New Jersey Rep. Jeff Van Drew told Forbes that he supports the bill and disagrees that it is linked to the reconciliation bill. “One is hard, real infrastructure … the other bill is a huge spending boondoggle.”

Alaska Rep. Don Young’s spokesperson told the Washington Examiner that he “is a yes on the bill as-is in the Senate, which means he’s a yes when it gets to the House floor."

We're not voting out way out of this shitstorm, it will take significantly more drastic measures... It remains to be seen whether a modern day 3% is up to the task

Cassidy is termed out. He's collecting on his lottery and fricking his constituents.

The country needs an infrastructure bill. Desperately. This would have gotten 90 votes in the Senate under Trump.

I have no idea why he didn't take the easy win which the country actually needed.

Bill Cassidy, LOUISIANA


This turncoat lied his butt off for his reelection. He has voted opposite his party and the LOUD requests of his constituents every chance he got this term. So much so that the LAGOP has censured him. We have put up billboards in this state paid for by the voters letting him know how worthless he is. He has 5 more years in DC. There are no recalls.

This is lesson for us. We have become aware of two red flags,

1) Bill was a Democrat and switched parties to get elected his first term
2) He was up front about only serving two terms.

Once a Democrat ALWAYS a Democrat. And when you say you only plan to serve two terms, you are saying you answer to no one.
