I believe both will move forward and get done. I think we`ll work this out. You know, I`m ready to sit at the table and so are my colleagues, ready to sit at the table and figure this out and we can, right? This just makes sense to get both bills moving. We can do that. You know, but -- but there`s no reason to wait four or five months or more sitting on this infrastructure package and risking that or threatening and holding it hostage like some of my colleagues are doing. That just doesn`t make sense.
