The Republicans threatened that if the Democrats end the filibuster, then Republicans would slow down every piece of legislations, and will basically do everything they can to stop all Senate action. Well, the Republicans have, after a bit more than a month, decided to do everything to stop every piece of legislation. The Republicans have made their decision. They will each need to cast their vote against COVID relief and COVID checks, and hope their voters won't remember next summer.
The only question now is what Manchin and Sinema will require for their votes. This will be true now, on the infrastructure bill, and then on the filibuster vote. Make no mistake, the voting right bill WILL PASS before the 2022 elections.
=============
1) The stimulus bill will pass, probably with no Republican votes.
2) The BBB (infrastructure, climate control and jobs bill will pass probably with no Republican votes.
That's it for meaningful legislation until after the 2022 election, unless the filibuster is voted out. Well, $4T may be enough for awhile. The Senate will then spend its time adding lots of new judges, and approving judges and other appointees, while nothing else happens.
==================
3) As always, there will huge fights each time the debt limit needs to increase.
4) AND THEN, AND THEN, the filibuster will be voted out so that the voting rights bill and criminal justice bill can pass. And THEN, good luck to the Republicans. DC statehood will be next, and then Puerto Rico statehood.
============
All this on the table on March 4th, inauguration day according to the conspirators.
