Senator Kyrsten Sinema (D-AZ) agreed to back the Inflation Reduction Act, an important deal for the Democrat’s agenda. While left-leaning articles focus on the agreements made between Sinema and other Senate Democrats, right-leaning articles focus on expected Republican backlash to the deal.
A left-leaning article from The Washington Post discusses how Sinema’s support for the bill will allow Senate Democrats to move forward on a health-care, climate, and deficit-reduction package. The deal came after Sinema and Democrats agreed to remove a tax policy targeting wealthy investors and tweaked a new tax minimum on corporations that currently pay nothing to the government.
Newsweek published a centrist article reporting on how Sinema has been slammed for her deal with Senate Democrats. The Arizona Senator only agreed to the deal on “the condition that a tax break for wealthy hedge fund managers was preserved.”
A right-leaning article from Fox News discusses how Republicans have promised a vote-a-rama “hell” in advance of the Democrats’ tax and spending bill. Senator Lindsay Graham (R-SC) said that “I'm hoping that we can come up with proposals that will make sense to a few of [the Senate Democrats], and they will abandon this jihad.”
