Senate Democrats face a gauntlet of Republican attempts to rein in President Joe Biden’s $1.9 trillion stimulus package in a marathon session of votes that will extend the timetable for passage into the weekend. Democratic leaders plan to rough it through the amendment process and emerge with a bill that gets the votes of all 50 Democrats without risking a revolt from progressives in the House, which will have to agree on the Senate version before it goes to Biden for his signature. The Senate bill stripped one prize from progressives: the House-passed provision phasing in a $15-an-hour minimum wage, more than double the $7.25 of today. The Senate parliamentarian ruled last week that the provision violates fast-track budget rules allowing the bill to pass with a simple majority, and efforts to overturn or bypass that ruling failed. Also excised were some smaller provisions, like money for a tunnel in California, that Republicans had lampooned as unrelated to the pandemic. Senate Budget Committee Chairman Bernie Sanders said he plans to force an amendment vote on a $15 minimum wage to put lawmakers on record. Democrats are also considering other ways to try and raise wages later in the year, including on a second reconciliation package. Under budget rules, however, amendments like that require 60 votes.
