Lawmakers and White House officials were universal in the view that progress was made. All said the temperature, which had reached an intraparty boiling point, had started to come down. Yet all also acknowledged the same thing: the real work comes in the next few days. What to watch. Biden's public schedule is quite open on Thursday. Expect it to fill up with more meetings with lawmakers, White House officials say -- something that will likely be a regular occurrence in the days ahead.
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi will hold her weekly press conference at a. Where the divides stand. The meetings were substantive. They were detailed, with multiple lawmakers laying out priorities and issues across the key planks of Biden's proposal, from child care and paid leave, to concerns over the structure of specific tax proposals. There are, in short, a lot of policy details still to be hammered out, even if the key elements of the plan are both widely agreed upon -- and widely supported.
White House officials have acknowledged for more than a week that the size of the package would have to be scaled back in order to secure the votes of moderate Sens. To what degree, however, and through which programs or priorities, has remained an open question.
But no commitments were made, people involved said. Biden had an explicit ask for moderates, who have frustrated all involved by not laying out what exactly they would accept on the topline: tell the White House what would work. The time pressure. There are two time pressures driving things right now. On the macro level, there is the necessity of getting everything done by the end of the year.
While it's not a written rule, history is pretty clear that once lawmakers enter a midterm election year, the ability to coalesce around anything substantial dissipates dramatically. Multiply that by about 10 this Congress given the exceedingly bare Democratic majorities. Progressives haven't backed off their pledge to kill that vote if it moves forward.
Moderates came away from their meeting with the impression that that vote was still on. Progressives made clear they'd told Biden it need to be moved.
Biden made no explicit commitment. What are the possibilities? Schumer, Speaker Pelosi and get back. The bottom line here is the most immediate issue Biden and Democratic leaders need to resolve is the looming infrastructure vote. Biden pressed lawmakers to make "significant progress" on the economic and climate package by early next week, according to one participant. It's a hint toward the goal right now -- lock in some kind of framework that gives progressives a reason to vote for the infrastructure bill.
It's a heavy, heavy lift. But something to keep a close eye on. One thing to keep in mind, however: people involved expect no quick solution or end to this process.
