po point in time. do you have a ballpark? no, i do not. i know there are a good numbers of members in the progressive caucus that feel this way. my view is this. when the bill goes to the floor, i ll vote for it. but i m confident that the speaker will come up with a strategy and he s been working on a strategy that will get us the level of assurance that we can get in order to move forward. what i don t like is the senators saying pass the bill and then we ll tell you what we re for. that s not responsible. they understand if there is a trust gap, one of the ways to bridge that is to be transparent. what i haven t seen so far is any indication of what those two senators would vote for. if they can do that, then i hear you say that, but it also falls on the house to do their part to pass legislation, and the bipartisan infrastructure bill already passed in the senate, so they could argue they ve done their

phase of the biden administration to manage the first time since joe biden had taken off and people are concerned as they are right now. but also a dual challenge because people are more concerned but they don t know where to get information. when you look at who people trust to get information, 52% of americans trust the cdc. 37% nih, 37% the fda so a trust gap. people are more concerned, and they don t know where to go or who to trust. then you have people talking over each other. people talking about an increase spread appear they are looking at what that was in a lot of people saying income okay, am i at increased risk because i m vaccinated? what should i be looking at? so what is not just the biden administration. they are going to have to get a handle on it. just moments ago president obama put out a tweet, we have reached our goal of 70,000 adults receiving one dose of the vaccine. it is incredible process but we have further to go and if you
