Democrats have pushed through the Senate a $3.5-trillion budget blueprint that would bolster family services and health and environment programs.

President Biden celebrated the Senate’s bipartisan approval of a $1-trillion infrastructure bill. But his two-track strategy has a long way to go.Senate Majority Leader Charles E. Schumer assured progressives that Congress would pursue sweeping initiatives that went. It was a nod to divisions between the party’s moderates and liberals that he and Pelosi will have to resolve before Congress can approve their fiscal goals. Democrats control the House but only narrowly.

In a budget ritual, senators plunged into a “vote-a-rama,” a nonstop parade of messaging amendments that often becomes a painful all-night ordeal. This time, the Senate had held more than 40 votes by the time it approved the measure at about 4 a.m. EDT, more than 14 hours after the procedural marathon began.

Republicans were also happy when Democrats opposed restricting IRS access to some financial records, which McConnell’s office said would prompt political “witch hunts,” and when Democrats showed support for Biden’s now-suspendedOne amendment may have boomeranged after the Senate voted 99-0 for a proposal by freshman Sen. Tommy Tuberville to curb federal funds for any municipalities that defund the police.

Republicans claimed two narrow victories with potential long-term implications, with West Virginia Sen. Joe Manchin, one of the chamber’s more conservative Democrats, joining them on both nonbinding amendments.One indicated support for health are providers who refuse to participate in abortions. The other voiced opposition to, which considers racism endemic to American institutions. There’s scant evidence that it’s part of public school curriculums.

The media has to stop making this into a game. It’s not ‘another win for Biden.’ It’s long overdue help for the decaying infrastructure. If the next infrastructure bill passes, that will be a huge ‘win’ for the people, not the politicians and their parties.

To be clear it's not really a Biden win as much as it's a win for the country as a whole

The right side of history is an everlasting story of who knows. I don't believe that but I know.

Biden on a roll; getting stuff done for the American people.
