Twenty U.S. senators, including ten Republicans, agreed to support President Joe Biden’s infrastructure plan Wednesday amid widespread GOP opposition.
Ten GOP senators, along with one Independent and nine Democratic colleagues, expressed their support for Biden’s infrastructure plan, known as the “American Jobs Plan,” in order to improve “America’s critical infrastructure challenges” in a joint statement.
“We support this bipartisan framework that provides an historic investment in our nation’s core infrastructure needs without raising taxes. We look forward to working with our Republican and Democrat colleagues to develop legislation based on this framework to address America’s critical infrastructure challenges,” the senators wrote.

Rep. Jamaal Bowman on Monday called fellow Democrat Sen. Joe Manchin “the new Mitch McConnell,” denouncing him for his opposition to the party’s expansive voting rights reform bill and for his support of the legislative filibuster. During an interview on CNN, Bowman accused Manchin of following the path of Republican Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, who prevented many of former President Barack Obama’s legislative initiatives and has said he will do the same under President Joe Biden.
“Joe Manchin has become the new Mitch McConnell. Mitch McConnell during Obama’s presidency said he would do everything in his power to stop Obama,” the New York lawmaker said. “He’s also repeated that now during the Biden presidency by saying he would do everything in his power to stop President Biden, and now Joe Manchin is doing everything in his power to stop democracy and to stop our work for the people, the work that the people sent us here to do.”
