    Congressional Progressive Caucus has been strong. They've held the line. The reconciliation bill will have to be negotiated but tonight's show of strength means it's less likely to whittled down to nothing.https://twitter.com/ArthurDelaneyHP/status/1443762505243938817 …

        Truly carrying the Sanders torch. Complain and make some noise and get nothing to show for it.

        One other thing: The reconciliation bill is the heart of the Democratic Party agenda. The idea that we'd require the bipartisan theater of the much smaller BIF to pass first is an arbitrary condition, an obstacle to success that doesn't have to happen: https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2021/09/29/sinema-reconciliation-biden-agenda/ … pic.twitter.com/eB4HXd54jR

        Yeah, they will get a deal. The important thing now is the crafting of the individual programs—how much/how long/how structured and, not least, how many.

        Do you think Manchin or Sinema care that much if neither bill passes? Order of preference for them might be: Pass BIF only > Pass neither > Pass both BIF and BBB

        The centrists will hate them for this, but progressives are trying to save the centrists from themselves.
