Bernie to House progressives: Hold strong on infrastructure vote

Sirota reports that Bernie said to his House colleagues: "I strongly urge my House colleagues to vote against the bipartisan infrastructure bill until Congress passes a strong reconciliation bill." And as of yesterday those House progressives had 24 committed publicly to voting against it, with 10 more privately doing so. 

However the promise was that they would vote NO unless and until the Senate passed the Build Back Better Act. But it seems that now we're getting House hedging, as Porter said she'd vote no "if there’s not a framework and an agreement on how we move forward." Khanna also referred to this "framework." That is definitely not the original promise and not good enough, because Sanders correctly noted that without holding firm to the Senate first passing the BBB it's chances of ever getting passed are highly unlikely. I hope that the progressives don't surrender this BS framework as an excuse to pass the IB, once again falling for moving the football that never gets kicked.
