$1 trillion bipartisan infrastructure bill on Senate floor
The US Senator Sinema says introduces roughly $1 trillion bipartisan infrastructure bill on the Senate floor.
Sinema's action clears the path for the amendment process in a step toward passage of infrastructure bill, bullish for US stocks and risk appetite for the start of the week.
The majority leader Chuck Schumer on the floor:
"The bipartisan group of senators has finished writing the text of the infrastructure bill and in a moment, I'll take the procedural steps to make their legislative language the base of the bill here on the floor."
