I question if the advocates really challenged her on the issue. The people they call are always so diplomatic.

You need to stop worrying about the infrastructure bill. The reconciliation bill is going ahead with or without a bipartisan infrastructure bill - that was always the plan. Biden said it, Pelosi said it, even Manchin agreed with it. 10 Republicans are going to vote for a infrastructure bill because of course the will, they need to bring the bacon back to their states, it would be completely stupid to lock themselves out of funding.
The issue here has always been whether the parliamentarian will agree to allow immigration related subjects onto the reconciliation bill - that’s it. Don’t pay attention to the theater and don’t feed into it.
