“Catastrophic” disarray

First Nancy Pelosi stabbed the socialist caucus in the back, now it looks like she might stab her vulnerable members in the back by breaking her promise to hold a vote on infrastructure.

Here’s how vulnerable Democrats feel about that…

Texas Rep. Vicente Gonzalez: “Obviously, our group will have a lot of trouble with that. And it will be catastrophic.” (The Hill)

Oregon Rep. Kurt Schrader: “That’d be foolish on their part… That would indicate they’re not playing fair in the sandbox. … It would be a travesty if they try to play games.” (POLITICO)

Michigan Rep. Elissa Slotkin: “I feel more confident now that it will pass. But God forbid it didn’t, we’d have a real problem.” (Washington Post)

Florida Rep. Stephanie Murphy:“If the vote were to fail tomorrow or be delayed, there would be a significant breach in trust that would slow the momentum in moving forward in delivering the Biden agenda” (Associated Press)

Pennsylvania Rep. Susan Wild: “It’s a huge concern of mine… If you don’t get at least one of these bills done — specifically the hard infrastructure and preferably both — we are at substantial risk next year.”(The Philadelphia Inquirer)

New Jersey Rep. Josh Gottheimer: “The date was something we voted on, and every single Democrat in the caucus supported it. And it’s a rule, it’s not just a press release … and the Speaker publicly committed to getting the votes for it.”  (Axios)

New York Rep. Tom Suozzi (On SALT cap repeal): “If it doesn’t happen, I’m going to look like an idiot.” (Bloomberg)
