The White House has reduced President Joe Biden’s sweeping proposal to $1.7 trillion, but Republican senators are rejecting the compromise as disappointing, saying “vast differences” remain.

President Joe Biden announced a temporary suspension of new lease sales a week after taking office.

Some Republican officials are invoking the Trump mantra that only “legal votes” should be counted before the election is certified.

Trump has vowed to continue to fight his case in the courts.

The Republicans dodged the question from The Associated Press.

They might even be able to protect their most vulnerable incumbent, Sen. Doug Jones of Alabama.

The aim is to not only counter Republicans in the courts, but in public relations, too.

Biden reached the threshold three days after the primaries.

Biden could lock down the nomination during next week’s primaries in West Virginia and Georgia.

According to party rules, Biden gets 12 delegates and Sanders gets two.
