Sen. Jerry Moran (R-KS) flipped his position on Tuesday to a “no” vote on the so-called infrastructure deal, following Sen. Todd Young (R-IN).
“GOP Sen. Jerry Moran, who is up for reelection and initially endorsed the bipartisan infrastructure framework, just announced his opposition to the final bill and said he plans to vote against it,” a CNN reporter first reported:

Moran was and remains a jackass. Vote him out!
Break the 60 ceiling then claim you voted against it. Open the door, let the thieves in, and claim I am not for stealing.
How many people are so naive as to fall for this nonsense? Enough, I guess. Someone else announced the same thing yesterday.
Classic Bush League Republican play, vote to advance the bill and then vote against.
Enough of them will vote for it to pass it, the ones just re-elected.
Re-electing Assistant Democrats only assists the Democrats.
so do they have enough gop votes to pss the great white whale?
Yep, it’s just that simple.
The old snooker em RINO playbook.
BTW, this is ANOTHER Bush League Republican endorsed by Trump.
He has to stop endorsing Bush League Republicans if we are ever to take over the GOP.
Otherwise we are stuck voting for Assistant Democrats until they assist the Democrats to a permanent majority.
He was for it before he was against it.......................
We need to flip another 10 RINO’s.
This reminds me of how John Kerry told us how he voted for a bill before he voted against it. He was referring to the various Senate procedural votes that precede the final votes on legislation.
It sounds like a nasty political chess move. These politicians can claim they voted both for and against something, thus appealing to voters on both sides of an issue. Which is turn gets them more votes on election day, as most voters don’t follow the ins and outs of politics nearly as much as people on a political site such as this one.
Meanwhile back at the institution, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Seante Majority Leader Charles Schumer have vowed to impeach President Trump for inciting Riots in Cuba.
He votes to end cloture, then says he will vote against the infrastructure bill, and then will spend the next two years at every campaign stop bragging on how much infrastructure spending he brought to Kansas.
People are paying attention now. Both should be taken out regardless. Now just WHO is going to step up?
Too late, Jerry Moron!
that’s what she said
I live in Kansas and I know Senator Moran. I will support him again in 2022. Not because of this particular situation but based on his record over as yours in the Senate/House of representatives.
A lot of what the senators have done is for show. But the Republicans have done a good job of trying to harness their leadership by voting for cloture.
Voting for cloture does not mean that they actually support the infrastructure bill but that they want to bring it to the floor for debate. You cannot have debate until after you have closure and that does not mean that the Republicans will vote for the bill as it stands today.
They need to have the debate on record so that the American public can hear the pork that has been stuffed into the bill that most Republicans would never vote for. It’s all for show. The Democrats and the Republicans both know how their base feels on the infrastructure bill. Hopefully it doesn’t pass. The Republicans have to put this out there so that right leading Democrats have to have the pressure to put on their elected officials to vote no sense it’s just full of crap
All people will be talking about in 2022 is inflation and recession or depression.
I suspect COVID will still be around as well.
“For show”! He has shown that he is an idiot and traitor for ending a debate that never started. And you are determined to reward this buffoon?
