Description
President Joe Biden is set to speak with Sen. Joe Manchin as early as
today in what Hill sources tell us will be a make-or-break moment for
passing the Build Back Better Act (BBB) before Christmas.
Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer has been adamant that his chamber
will clear the party’s $1.7 trillion social spending package before
senators leave for the holidays. Yet everyone knows that won’t happen
without the stubborn West Virginia Democrat — and Democrats are looking
for some presidential arm-twisting to get him there.
Raghu Manavalan is the Host of POLITICO's Playbook.
Jenny Ament is the Senior Producer of POLITICO Audio.

But the level of engagement within Trumpworld this far out — that we didn’t necessarily expect. by POLITICO Playbook Daily Briefing
