A step forward in the $1T infrastructure package

The bipartisan $1 trillion infrastructure package has received enough votes up for debate to open in the US Senate. To move forward it only needed a 50 vote majority.  The Senate last advanced the proposal by a 67-32 margin in a Wednesday test vote. Advancing was expected.

The measure would put $550 billion in new funds into transportation, power, water and broadband.
