    Kirsten Gillibrand is worried. Congressional Republicans have tied up President Joe Biden and other Democrats in endless "negotiations" over the American Jobs Plan and Gillibrand, for good reason, believes Republicans are just trying to hamstring the administration.

    Republican plans of delay are exposed. And in reality democrats can move stand alone legislation with the approval of Joe munchkin of west virginia.

    Gillibrand has every reason to be concerned. Democrats have been down this path before. Republicans will dangle the possibility of passing that holy grail, "bipartisan" legislation, in order to mire Democrats in endless, go-nowhere negotiations that only ever serve to shrink Democratic ambitions but never seem to actually produce any of those badly desired Republican votes. It's especially frustrating to see this trick being played on Biden, who was vice president when Republicans did this to then-President Barack Obama on the Affordable Care Act. It was eventually passed, in a shrunken form, without a single Republican vote. Biden saw Obama's hopes for immigration reform slowly snuffed out by Republicans who were able to run out the clock with fake "negotiations." 

    Even now, Republicans are playing this game with the creation of a commission to investigate the insurrection on January 6.

    Biden plans to move forward with legislation giving a memorial day time line for Republican involvement.

    Pelosi has signalled a co.prehensive brought to floor by July 4th and passage in Senate before August recess signals Sen Shummers office.

    Andrew Bates, a spokesman for Biden, said Biden "wants to see progress by Memorial Day" and that inaction is not an option.

    “The president is committed to investing in our middle class and our infrastructure, and is working with both parties — reaching across the aisle in good faith — to negotiate about achieving that," Bates said.

    At the moment, however, liberals’ preference to leave the GOP behind is limited by their own party’s narrow majorities. Senate Democrats don’t quite have the votes to move forward with their own, unilateral approach the way they did in March with the $1.9 trillion coronavirus relief bill. Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse (D-R.I.) said one gargantuan reconciliation bill “would be quicker and easier, but we don’t seem to have the votes for it.”

    For now, Schumer and Pelosi are staying publicly in sync with Biden’s bipartisan hopes, and the Senate leader is even advancing through a bipartisan competitiveness bill to show he’s serious. But that may change, bringing along centrists like Sen. Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.), if talks between the Biden administration and the Republicans collapse.
