The passage of a roughly $1.2 trillion bipartisan infrastructure bill in the House after weeks of infighting among lawmakers, and Democrats' loss in Virginia’s gubernatorial election are expected to dominate this week’s Sunday show circuit.
Late Friday, moderate Democrats scored a win after the House voted 228-206 to move a $1.2 trillion bipartisan infrastructure bill to President Biden

In a deal between the Congressional Black Caucus, Congressional Progressive Caucus and moderate Blue Dog Democrats, the three agreed to pass the infrastructure legislation while a procedural rule would be passed teeing up a vote on the Democrats’ social spending bill for the future.
The agreement between the three also established that if the $1.75 trillion social spending bill filled with Democratic priorities received a Congressional Budget Office (CBO) score that aligned with that of estimates from the White House, moderates would vote for the bill.
But the successful passage of the $1.2 trillion infrastructure bill was not without its own setbacks. Progressives and moderates were at an impasse on moving forward with President Biden's domestic agenda. Progressives argued that they wanted both the roads and bridges bill and the social spending bill to be passed in tandem, while moderates balked at its price tag and particular initiatives included.
The House punted several times at putting the bipartisan bill on the floor for a vote as progressives previously threatened to tank the bill, and some progressives still voted against the infrastructure bill late Friday.
Six progressive Democrats voted against moving the bill to Biden’s desk, while 13 Republicans voted in favor of the bill. However, most Democrats took the time to celebrate its passage.
“Tonight the House successfully moved the #BuildBackBetter Act further along the path towards final passage. I look forward to sending this transformative investment in working families to the Senate soon,” House Majority Whip Rep. James Clyburn (D-S.C.) tweeted upon the bill’s passage.

"Finally, infrastructure week!" Biden exclaimed on Saturday, nodding at a recurring joke among lawmakers of generally failed plans at passing infrastructure proposals. "I'm happy to say that: infrastructure week."
