Sen. Ron Johnson hoping for 'Democratic gridlock' on reconciliation package

[AZProgressive]

As Democrats continue to feud internally over the content and price tag of President Biden's proposed $3.5 trillion reconciliation package, Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wis.) said on Sunday he hopes the disagreements eventually result in the legislation's defeat.

"I hope for Democrat gridlock," Johnson said on Fox News' "Sunday Morning Futures." "Oftentimes, in Washington, D.C., gridlock is the better alternative, but when it's Democrat gridlock, pray for it. I hope that's exactly what happens."

Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) previously set a deadline of Oct. 31 for passing Biden's agenda, which includes a bipartisan infrastructure bill that the Senate already approved in August.
