Fact Checking Claims That No Republicans Voted for the Infrastructure Bill

Actually, a total of 32 members of the GOP did so.
Fact Checking Claims That No Republicans Voted for the Infrastructure Bill

In a tweet Sunday, President Joe Biden referred to the 2021 infrastructure bill as bipartisan.

The claim was challenged by Sen. Martin Heinrich (D-New Mexico), who said in a tweet that has since been deleted that no Republicans voted for the bill.

Heinrich is incorrect: The bill passed the Senate with a vote of 69-30, with one abstention, and the House 228-206.
