Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) signaled in a new interview that he is open to an infrastructure spending bill totaling as much as $800 billion.

“The proper price tag for what most of us think of as infrastructure is about six to 800 billion dollars,” McConnell told public television in Kentucky over the weekend.

“What we’ve got here can best be described as a bait and switch,” he added.

McConnell indicated last week that GOP lawmakers were open to a roughly $600 billion bill.

President Biden‘s team at the White House has proposed a $2.25 trillion spending proposal that would fund the country’s bridges, roads and tunnels and set aside more funding to help states beat back the coronavirus pandemic.

  1. What an inaccurate presentation. The Biden plan contains well more than a trillion of pork. It is there to fund things unrelated to infrastructure or pandemic related matters. Trouble is that we keep believing the Dems. They are pathological liars, and are not honest or moral enough to deserve to work in public service.
