House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Sen. Rob Portman, the lead Republican negotiator, clashed Sunday over the next steps for the bipartisan infrastructure package

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Sen. Rob Portman clashed Sunday over the next steps for the bipartisan infrastructure package.

“The fact is that the president has said he wants to have a bipartisan bill, and we all do, but that is not the limitation of the vision of the president,” Pelosi said. “I won’t put it on the floor until we have the rest of the initiative.” Schumer reiterated last week that he intends to pass the bipartisan package and a budget blueprint for the $3.5 trillion package before the Senate leaves for the August recess. The New York Democrat held a vote Wednesday to begin the process for passing a bipartisan infrastructure bill, but all 50 Senate Republicans voted against it.

Pelosi appoints Republican Rep. Kinzinger to Jan. 6 committeeJUST IN: Speaker Pelosi adds a second Republican, Rep. Adam Kinzinger, to committee to investigate Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol. As a lifelong resident of the Illinois 16th Congressional District, this appointment I approve. Former Congressman John B Anderson left the Republican Party when it changed values in 1980. The party changed for the worst in 2016. Thank you RepKinzinger. Congratulations Adam!
