Pelosi pushing forward, urges 'decisive action' on passing spending legislation

US Congress House Leader Pelosi:

• "I have promised Members that we would not have House Members vote for a bill with a higher topline than would be passed by the Senate.
• Hopefully, that will be at the $3.5 trillion number. We must be prepared for adjustments according to the Byrd rule and an agreed to number.
• This week, we must take decisive action on proceeding with the Build Back Better reconciliation legislation."

From a letter sent to her colleagues in the House. The thing is the blockade in the Senate though. Maybe blockade is too strong a word but that's where the hurdle is. Pelosi indicating there is room for further compromise with that 'topline' comment.
