Sen. Kyrsten Sinema interrupted Sen. Rob Portman during the bipartisan group’s press conference to say that Sen. Susan Collins “looks good” despite having had only two hours of sleep during the negotiations of the infrastructure spending package. WASHINGTON – Arizona’s Sen. Kyrsten Sinema is being credited with pushing a bipartisan infrastructure spending package over the finish line this week. Sinema was part of a group of Senators in both parties and President Biden to reach final agreement on legislative text to make what she says is the “strongest investment in America’s critical infrastructure in a century.” “It’s rare to have an elected official from one party publicly praising another from the opposite party, but I’m doing just that because it’s so essential for the future of our nation that Sinema holds fast in keeping the filibuster intact,” Sinema colleague Sen. Thom Tillis wrote in an op-ed published on Wednesday. “If Democrats had eliminated the filibuster, there would have been no attempt to find common ground on infrastructure or other critical issues. It doesn’t necessarily make legislating easy, but it is getting members of both parties in the same room to work together for the good of the nation, as our Founding Fathers intended.”
