Kyrsten Sinema still opposes her party's plans for a $3.5 trillion, party-line spending bill. And she’s not up for a negotiation about it.
The $550 billion bipartisan infrastructure bill “is a historic win for our nation’s everyday families and employers and, like every proposal, should be considered on its own merits,” said Sinema spokesperson John LaBombard. “Proceedings in the U.S. House will have no impact on Kyrsten’s views about what is best for our country - including the fact that she will not support a budget reconciliation bill that costs $3.5 trillion.
Sinema in particular specifically opposes that spending goal, which was devised by Senate Budget Chair Bernie Sanders . Senate Democrats need all 50 of their members, including Manchin and Sinema, to pass a filibuster-proof reconciliation spending bill.
Kyrsten Sinema turn into a weird monster in D.C.
She’s under the mistaken impression that she gets to call the shots.
Man, what a con she pulled convincing Arizona she was a progressive. Hope they make her a one term senator
We are so effin screwed.
Idiot.
azinreallife They all see, to forget these are our tax dollars. I’d like to see some spent on things that benefit the public at large. Infrastructure Community programs Healthcare Sr. Care Child development Family support Not a nanny state, but programs bridge gaps.
Will not help Americans because of cost but trillions on a lost war how do you justify this
Good for her. Pass the bipartisan legislation and go all Kubuki on the doomed other plan, stomp your feet on the stage, make cartoonish grimaces.
🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️
A democrat that won't be bullied! Love it!
Then you do not understand ECONOMICS, lady! BBB will pay for itself in increased productivity.
She is so bought and paid for
What’s her party, again?
SenatorSinema Bill is paid for. You clearly care more about your gop buddies instead of your constituents.U have sold your soul to JohnCornyn /LeaderMcConnell ..You have lost all moral values. Depressing Americans ability to vote or live doesn't matter to you. SenSchumer
what needs to be done is find a strongCandidate and primary her primary her

SenatorSinema so the whole effort by democrats to help Americans lies on your shoulders & you’re not going help? You didn’t mind signing a corporate giveaways during trumps admin. BBCWorld cnni AP nytimes DCReportMedia washingtonpost thedailybeast HuffPost MSNBC
What a disappointment. I canvassed, I bought a sign, Sinema is clearly showing which “the great people of AZ” she’s working for and it ain’t me or my kind.
Going into this she knew the terms of engagement. Manchin and their counterparts are not in favor of the most crucial rights of minorities while they continue to impress their big donors. They know this bill will not be bipartisan in order for them to run out the clock
Completely disappointed and disgusted in SenatorSinema. I remember championing her and now I see she was just a wolf in sheep’s clothing. Unreal. She’s on the take, count on it. 🤬🤬🤬
VoteHerOut
It's cute she still thinks she's getting reelected in this state.
So other people have to negotiate with her, but she won't. Sounds just like a republican.
There you have it, the end of the Democratic Majority. & they said the QOP was divided. It's hard to imagine that Pelosi, Schumer, & Biden aren't in on it. Funds for war, Absolutely. $$ for struggling Americans, let's debate, act like we care, go on Holiday, & forget about it.
Sinema is a one term incumbent from a swing state that’s trending blue. Her views do not represent the state, as evidenced by polling. If Biden and Schumer actually want to pass the bill, then they should be threatening to cut her off and let her fend for herself in a primary.
🙌 kudos to her!
She just got elected to be a one term Senator
This is fine, let the negotiations continue. Content not just dollars amount
We need to get her out of office.
I'm going to guess with all the terrible vetting the last couple of election cycles. Someone's closet is about to get cleaned out and dumbed on the front steps of a media outlet soon.
kyrstensinema SenatorSinema doesn't care about Americans and our country.
She’s been paid off. Primary her.
Ok...so there will be no infrastructure bill at all. The giveaways to polluters in the bipartisan bill are a non-starter. This country will continue to look ridiculous on the international stage as it 'competes with China' while struggling to provide for its own citizens.
That’s because she’s not a Democrat; she’s a Republican pretending to be a Democrat.
Just can’t with her. See why one must vote!
melodijoy A conservative coalition Democrat they often vote & work with republicans against Dems like Biden did for Reagan & Bush. Senator Shelby Former group member. Sinema is from former GOP Senator John McCain’s home turf. Yes?
This selfish drama puppet can take all the seats.
She's MeghanMcCain 's shill
She seems to like attention...
That's OK she will be gone on the next election
Horrible hair
If somebody can ever point to a Republican obstructing their own party from passing a bill that will benefit the base so that the Democrats can have more input as a minority party, I would love to hear about it. Would never happen.
Move on without her. She is be on the outside looking in and fully agree with the cause once she has no power.
This is the reason that Democrats will lose the House and Senate in 2022. Dems are poised to win hearts and minds and gain a large majority, but they sabotage themselves.
One seemingly unstable 'representative' and everything comes to a halt ? ? ? Coincidentally. Taking the side of the 'enemies of America' !
If you cannot support our country with long due investments for the future means you do not have the for-thought nor intelligence to be in office! Everything possible to not re -elect you will be done. The other is not matter what you do Republicans will never vote for you!!!
Good for her!
We’ll see!
147 Republicans rejected democracy on Jan. 6 by voting to overturn the election based on a lie that fueled the insurrection at the U.S. Capitol. They tried to overturn the election in the courts, media, electoral offices & Congress & they have faced no accountability.
Apparently she's not looking to be re-elected.
$3.4T?
Sine a is a Republican !!
But if it were for a war that would be okay
Throw her out.
Has anyone told her it's over a 10-year period?
Sinema cares only for her wealthy donors. Nothing more.
Try telling her it’s ‘an investment’ - not money being discarded.
SenatorSinema Claw back the Trump Tax cut, Sen Sinema, a tax cut benefitting the 5% and repurpose for infrastructure benefitting the 95%, your State needs it.
So, I guess now DINO is a thing, too.
see, moderates obstruct and try to kill biden’s agenda. she’s backed by corporate powers. progressives are bidens true allies.
What is she for, does she have a plan...or is she just like the repubs...nothing for hardworking Americans or the country
Sinema needs to get primaried; so hard.
Classic
She probably won't get reelected here. Maybe she should move to a more Republican state. We're turning blue in Arizona!
Joe Manchin & Kyrsten Sinema are down with Moscow Mich & the white supremacy crew..😐🚩
Never underestimate the predictability of deplorable
Just make her Prom Queen and she’ll be happy.
Kyrsten is too busy auditioning for the next Scooby Doo movie to actually represent her constituents.
Sen. Sinema seems to run the distance for health and ego..but comes in last when voting for the majority of her constituents Democrats and their needs. Fixing the Arizona roads for cars & runners needs Infrastructure money…kyrstensinema save Arizona roads. Think like a leader
Really need MMT in the mainstream. Our lives are at stake
Thank god there is at least one sane Democrat. Stay strong!
DINOsaur Sinema. Pathetic
This senator is only care about the almighty dollar don't really care about the people this will help and in turn helping the economy in the future some people thinks public funds belongs to them there is a crisis and if some individual can't hop on board leave them on the curb
Guess the bipartisan infrastructure deal won't get a vote even if it is Democrats who end up gutting the Democratic majorities wrt dream of a spending bill
She’s NOT a Democrat people… how many times do I have to say it …. She’s been bought off $$$$$$$$$
Clearly she can be bought so Dems need to ask her price until they can expand the majority & make her irrelevant. America can’t be held hostage by one s****** ****
please stop it
Then Biden should apply pressure. Because he’s the President.
But will continue to vote for billions in unnecessary defense spending. Got it.
She's needs to go vote her out
I get that she just does not want to spend 3.5T, but things cost money & she can't just be opposed based on the total cost alone w/o consideration for what the people get out of it. Our country is in dire need of investment & social services. What specifically does she want cut?
SenatorSinema You are representing your constituents, not yourself....your constituents want this bill and the jobs that will come with it...you are ignoring their complaints about you and their anger that they voted for you.
This isn't her fault it's the progressives and Nancy Pelosi. They have a bipartisan bill that can start fixing our roads but won't vote on it till they force a bill 3 1/2 times the cost. Politics used to be about give and take not anymore. Take the win move onto the next
SenatorSinema needs voters to teach her what FAFO means.
Sinema is the woman at work who takes her shoes off during meetings.
It's a shame kyrstensinema can't be recalled...
what in hell is wrong with her?
Might be a little different if all the money was for infrastructure.
Hypocrite Sinema has no problem voting for increasing the military budget, or tax cuts for the wealthy and corporate America.
PhilLatzman Can’t wait to primary her
She only likes the Trump style of spending. $9T and we get nothing for it
She's simply awful. Awful.
Dumb and that's all I have to say about that
Such a disappointment. Another promising young politician that has, obviously, sold out. I will not vote her again.
I’m very sick of her I’m so quirky act it’s such a painful cry for help. She is excellent proof that intelligence and common sense are not the same. Her legacy will stink.
Idiot
What does she approve!! Nothing the Democratics want.. By the way, she and Meghan McCain are friends🤬
Useless
How much dark money is being used to sway her and Manchin?
KS: “like, OMG!! You’ll need to gag me with a spoon and fly me to the moon before I actually represent the voice of the people who voted for me, over that of the Koch brothers’ money!! It’s totally tubular how much money they are giving me…like DUH, TOTALLY NOT GIVING THAT UP!!”
Might as well just give this seat back to the Republicans for what little the Democrats are getting out of it.
No negotiation? Keep the filibuster ? Her and Manchin should change parties.
People like this are not helping our economy grow! These people who object don’t need to be representing us! They must be ousted! We need to get our economy back and running for a better future for every single American!She has no go in her!Get rid of the old and in with the new!
