Left warns Pelosi they'll take down Biden infrastructure bill

Liberals on Tuesday sent a stern warning to Democratic leaders that a bipartisan infrastructure bill cannot pass through the House as long as Senate centrists remain noncommittal on the larger social benefits package at the heart of President Biden's agenda. 

"If she were to call the bill, it will fail," Rep. Jan Schakowsky (D-Ill.), a close ally of Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.), said leaving a closed-door House Democratic Caucus meeting. "Not because the Progressive Caucus, people like me, aren't willing to vote for it. But ... we had an agreement that we were going to get these two pieces [together]."
