Several moderates tell us they will not vote to advance [the Build Back Better Act] without [the bipartisan infrastructure bill] clearing the House first.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The reluctance by the House Democrats is a glimpse into the vulnerability they face ahead of the 2022 midterm elections, either because of their districts being redrawn or due to tough re-election challenges from Republicans in red states or swing districts.<\/p>\n<p>For instance, Rep. Tim Ryan (D-OH) is running for Ohio\u2019s open Senate seat that will be vacated by Sen. Rob Portman (R-OH). Ryan, seen as the likely Democrat nominee, will face off against one of the Republicans running in the primary, which includes J.D. Vance and Josh Mandel.<\/p>\n<p>A vote for amnesty and limitless immigration for corporations would shake up Ryan\u2019s bid for the Ohio Senate seat.<\/p>\n<p>Most of the vulnerable House Democrats have been silent on the Build Back Better Act.
