Last week the U.S. House of Representatives ended months of
infighting among Democrats to pass a $1.2 trillion infrastructure
bill that Sen. Kyrsten Sinema helped broker. The historic
legislation, along with a still-unfinished social spending bill,
serves as a reminder of the Arizona Democrat's central role in what
seems politically possible in Washington.   A deal with
the liberal wing of House Democrats allowed the physical
infrastructure plan to proceed. It will boost spending on the
nation's various deteriorating structures such as roads and
bridges, water systems and expand broadband internet coverage.
Progressive Democrats expect a vote on the $1.75 trillion human
"Build Back Better" bill later this month.  How will Sinema's
moderate policies affect the Biden agenda, Democratic fortunes in
the 2022 midterm elections, and her own future in the Senate? In
this week's episode of The Gaggle, an Arizona politics podcast,
hosts Yvonne Wingett Sanchez and Ronald J. Hansen speak with Kyle
Kondik. Kondik is a political analyst and the managing editor of
