This came after a group of lawmakers and officials from the local to federal level gathered together to discuss the current infrastructure proposal.<\/p>\n<p>The conference followed a meeting earlier Wednesday between Joe Biden and the congressional \u201cBig Four,\u201d which included Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.), House GOP leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) along with Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y) and Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.).<\/p>\n<p>Joining Pelosi at the post-game press conference was Rep. Peter Defazio (D-Ore.) and Mayors Eric Garcetti of Los Angeles, Levar Stoney of Richmond, Virginia and Quinton Lucas of Kansas City. None of those lawmakers are Republicans, but that didn\u2019t seem to matter.<\/p>\n<p>Pelosi asserted the bill would \u201cabsolutely\u201d make it to the House floor by the Fourth of July break. Though her assurances are not indicative of a bipartisan effort as the majority party and specifically the Speaker of the House determines which bills and when make it to debate.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">We must <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/BuildBackBetter?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#BuildBackBetter<\/a> by thinking boldly.
