Klobuchar on BBB: Says Senate Democrats will do 'everything to get' it passed by Christmas [View all]
Democrats are going to do "everything to get" President Joe Biden's Build Back Better Act done by Christmas, Sen. Amy Klobuchar said Sunday.
"We have to get this done, Jake. And Senator (Joe) Manchin is still at the negotiating table," Klobuchar, a Democrat from Minnesota, told CNN's Jake Tapper on "State of the Union," referring to a moderate member of her party who has voiced some reservations on the proposal.
Pressed by Tapper on whether the bill would be passed by Christmas, Klobuchar said: "I am all in on getting it done by Christmas and we'll do everything to get it done."
As the Senate nears its holiday recess, Democrats, including Klobuchar and Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, are pushing to pass the sweeping spending bill by Christmas. But the party is facing some obstacles from Manchin, whose support of the legislation is key to its passage
