The U.S. Senate eyed to take up a bipartisan infrastructure deal on the floor by July 19. Politico reported that the information came from multiple House and Senate Democratic sources with knowledge of the matter.

The source said the Senate could move both the budget resolution and bipartisan bill through the Senate as soon as the week of July 19. The bipartisan group of negotiators was still working on their eight-year framework into legislation amounting up to $1.2 trillion, The Hill reported.

The news of taking up the bipartisan infrastructure deal came as the Senate was in the middle of the two-week July 4 recess.

Senate Eyes to Take Up Bipartisan Infrastructure Deal by July 19

As operations in the Senate resume on Monday, Senate Majority Leader Charles Schumer of New York vowed to move both the budget resolution and the bipartisan deal during the upcoming week, when lawmakers were scheduled to stay in town until the first week of August.

"Our plan continues to have a budget resolution and a bipartisan bill on the floor of the Senate in July," said Schumer. 

He noted that they plan to both have a budget resolution and a bipartisan bill on the floor this month, and everyone in the caucus knows that they can't do one without the other. 

In an email, Politico reported that a White House official who was not identified said the process could begin as early as the week of July 19, based on their understanding. The official noted that it would be a mistake to think of July 19 as "anything more than the opening of a window."

The Hill reported that the bipartisan group has been working behind the scenes in trying to craft their legislation. Senator Kyrsten Sinema from Arizona noted that they were working "to craft this into legislation that is lean and effective." Sinema is leading the efforts with Republican Senator Rob Portman of Ohio.

Although the bipartisan framework gained their 22nd Senate supporter with Senator Jacky Rosen from Nevada, the senate group behind the framework still faces hurdles as they try to garner 60 votes needed for the infrastructure bill to be passed in the Senate.

Despite the effort to take up the bipartisan infrastructure deal on the Senate floor, the Senate group faces criticism over some of the proposed pay-fors for their agreement.

Republicans have also warned against the bill as it was linked to the separate, significantly larger package that Democrats will try to pass along party lines.

President Joe Biden Stops in Illinois to Push for Bipartisan Infrastructure Deal

The news about the targeted timeframe of Senate comes as President Joe Biden visited Illinois on Wednesday, July 7, to push for the bipartisan infrastructure deal agreed by a bipartisan group of senators and the White House.

Joe Biden earlier issued a statement regarding his stand on the infrastructure deal, as he acknowledged that his previous message created an impression of a veto threat.

Fox News reported that the president visited McHenry County College in Crystal Lake, which is located in the district of Democratic Representative Lauren Underwood.

Joe Biden went to the district to promote his "Build Back Better" program agenda. According to veteran columnist and political analyst Lynn Sweet, the area is "one of the redder parts of one of the bluest states in the nation."
