So just creating the\u00a0option for reconciliation with a\u00a0budget resolution does not\u00a0foreclose other legislative\u00a0options,&#8221; she said.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>On Capitol Hill, Republican leadership<\/strong>\u00a0is making the same case as the chamber.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell said Tuesday that Democrats have chosen &#8220;a totally partisan path&#8221; by forcing the process to move forward via budget reconciliation, which allows them to bypass the GOP.<\/li>\n<li>&#8220;We&#8217;re off to a totally partisan start. I think that&#8217;s unfortunate,&#8221; the minority leader said.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Biden so far has been toeing the line.\u00a0<\/strong>He told Senate Democrats\u00a0during their virtual lunch Tuesday afternoon he wants to continue working toward a compromise \u2014 but the proposal given to him Monday by 10 Republicans was too small.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"flex mb-20\">\n<div class=\"gtm-content-click h-16 relative w-16 b9rgys-0 gtcdvV\" data-vars-content-id=\"ebe9f417-b850-4f05-8d34-2b65e7dcb300\" data-vars-headline=\"Chamber warns Biden not to submit to progressive wish\" data-vars-event-category=\"story\" data-vars-sub-category=\"story\" data-testid=\"social-share-button\" data-vars-click-url=\"https:\/\/www.axios.com\/chamber-commerce-biden-administration-ebe9f417-b850-4f05-8d34-2b65e7dcb300.html?utm_campaign=organic&amp;utm_medium=socialshare&amp;utm_source=facebook\" data-vars-item=\"social_share-facebook\">Sourse: Google News<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The U.S. Chamber of Commerce is urging the Biden administration not to go around Republicans to pass the president\u2019s $1.9 trillion stimulus package, a move being pushed by the Democrats\u2019 progressive wing.
