We will trust them if they say they're going to do this, and we have an agreement. But we got to get the agreement first, we given and given and given and now it's time for them to also help us to get this done.

I don't know how you explain that.

We have been very clear that this is -- we've been standing up for the 85% of the President's agenda that is in the Build Back Better Act.

We have really slim margins in both chambers. And that`s just the reality of it.

We need to get this done.

I think it`s time for those 700 billionaires to pay at least a piece of their fair share.

Ninety percent of the Build Back Better Act is done. And we're just waiting on the final agreement from the two senators.

I'm going to be reintroducing my bill, the Students Not Profits Act, to stop for-profits from abusing these funds.

Federal student aid is intended to enrich underserved students, but sadly for-profit colleges have been more interested in using these funds to pad their pockets in exchange for student loan debt and unusable degrees.

Pramila Jayapal, the congresswoman, she still wants these bills to be back to that.

It is Kyrsten Sinema that is not supportive of that right now.

If your goal is to restore faith in the Department of Justice, then you have to address the fact that we are taking a long time with these charges.

I`m not sure how much more radicalized you can get when you have just been put there for trying to overthrow the government.

Thank you very much for being here and for your commitment to protecting our democracy.

We have to work to deliver things that make people say my life is better.

We might not just get everything in this particular moment. But we aren't giving up on any of this, for the longer term.

I do believe that Senator Manchin wants the bill to pass.

This is the president's agenda and I'm really proud of the progressive caucus for what we did to actually get the Build Back Better Act back on the table.

We are going to get them done. It’s a messy process. Democracy is not always easy. Negotiation is not always easy.

We`re willing to look at hearing back years for some of our priorities. We already have our proposal and again we`re waiting on two people to get back to us with their proposal.

I want people across this country to know that government is fighting for them, that we’re not going to leave people behind, that we’re not going to pit child care against climate change, we’re not going to pit housing against immigration.

This is the president’s agenda. I know the speaker wants to deliver on that. And I know that all of us, 96 percent of Democrats in the House and the Senate agree that we want to get this done, and we were ready to get it done at the…

I`m really proud of the Progressive Caucus, because, by holding the line and saying that we were going to stick to what we said three-and-a-half months ago, which was we`re not voting for the infrastructure bill without the reconciliation…

Look, there`s some things that are accurate in that we are trying to get to a set of priorities that will be transformational, that will change people`s lives, that will take on climate change, that will provide paid leave, 12 weeks of…

We are going to pay far more not just in terms of dollars but in term of opportunity, in terms of lives lost, in terms of, you know, lack of security for our country and for the world if we do not take on climate change in reality.
