Live updates: Biden tells bipartisan group of lawmakers he is ‘prepared to compromise’ on infrastructure

Senate Republicans plan to vote Wednesday on whether to lift their decade-long ban on earmarks, the practice of directing money to specific projects in lawmakers’ districts. Democrats plan to revive earmarks, which in the past had been a tool to get legislation passed by adding sweeteners for individual members.

They are Sens. Mike Braun of Indiana, John Cornyn of Texas, Ted Cruz of Texas, Steve Daines of Montana, Joni Ernst of Iowa, Josh Hawley of Missouri, Ron Johnson of Wisconsin, Mike Lee of Utah, Cynthia M. Lummis of Wyoming, Rand Paul of Kentucky, Mitt Romney of Utah, Marco Rubio of Florida, Ben Sasse of Nebraska, Rick Scott of Florida and Patrick J. Toomey of Pennsylvania.
