WASHINGTON - The U.S. Senate pushed ahead Monday with consideration of a nearly $1 trillion bipartisan infrastructure package, with Senate Democratic Majority Leader Chuck Schumer promising to work with opposition Republican lawmakers to hold key votes on specific construction projects across the country. Let s start voting on amendments, Schumer told the Senate as it started business for the week. He said a final vote on the legislation could be held in a matter of days but vowed to keep the chamber in session until work on the measure is completed - before recessing for the Senate s annual August vacation. The longer it takes to finish the bill, the longer we will be here.
