SCHUMER: WE HAD AN AGREEMENT

SEN. JOHN KENNEDY: “Well I can just share with you my point of view Laura. At first I was probably yes on this bill. I mean that’s not for infrastructure. I’m for kids and prosperity too. But then I got a copy of the bill and realized pretty quickly that if you look for stupid stuff in the dictionary, there is a picture of this bill. They told us that it was a real infrastructure bill. It is not. Only 23% of the bill is real infrastructure. The rest is the green new deal and social assistance. They told us the bill has been paid. It is not. We may have to borrow up to $ 400 billion to pay it. They told us there was no increase My state is going to have to pay $ 1.3 billion in new taxes on our petroleum chemical industry. They told us, as you pointed out, that Democrats were really suspicious of this bill and that if we passed this bill it would make it harder for them. pass their five trillion dollar tax and spending spree reconciliation bill. Well if that’s true how come every Democ rat voted for this infrastructure bill. And finally, they told us it wouldn’t increase inflation, but it would. “
