Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell said Thursday that there is a "real chance" some Democrats and the White House could work with Republicans to pass a "bipartisan" infrastructure bill, a shift from other comments he made this week that Republicans are "100%" focused on stopping President Biden. McConnell was asked about the state of play on infrastructure legislation and the $4 trillion-plus in spending the Biden administration is pushing for through its American Jobs Plan and American Families Plan. He added: "I think the administration will probably think of this as plan B. But he sidestepped a question about her status on Tuesday, saying instead that Senate Republicans are "100%" focused on "stopping this new administration." "I'm not the majority leader, I'm barely not the majority leader – we've got a 50-50 Senate," McConnell said.
