During a morning virtual news conference from Washington, U.S. Sens. Richard Blumenthal and Chris Murphy said that once President Biden’s infrastructure legislation is passed in the Senate and House of Representatives, an even larger follow-up will be pursued by congressional Democrats under so-called budgetary reconciliation rules. “Our goal is to finish this bipartisan proposal by the end of the week and then very, very crucially move to a second package,” Blumenthal said. “We have the chance to do something historic this week,” Murphy said, adding that he would spend most of Monday reviewing the trillion-dollar compromise agreed upon by five top Republicans and Democrats in the Senate. “This bipartisan bill represents the biggest one-time investment in infrastructure in this country’s history, and we should get it done. This infrastructure bill has a potential to be an economic game-changer for Connecticut.”
