June 25, 2021: Can Dems land the infrastructure plane?
President Joe Biden, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer and Speaker Nancy Pelosi unveiled a rather daring new strategy Thursday for getting the president\u2019s agenda passed.\nThe gist is this: If Biden\u2019s proposal for \u201cfamily infrastructure\u201d and climate change doesn\u2019t pass, then neither will the bipartisan infrastructure deal that senators just struck.\nBut the Biden-Schumer-Pelosi playbook also has the makings of a serious legislative cluster \u2014 and high drama over whether Democrats can actually pull this off \u2014 this summer and possibly into the fall.\nRaghu Manavalan is the host of POLITICO's Playbook.\nJenny Ament is the senior producer for POLITICO Audio.\xa0\nIrene Noguchi is the executive producer of POLITICO Audio.
