Manchin's filibuster reform opposition cracks a bit. Biden's friend Clyburn can blow it wide open
Republican Sen. Lisa Murkowski proved Saturday just how important filibuster reform is going to be for anything else that is good to happen in this country. She offered an amendment to the American Rescue Plan that directs $800 million to services for homeless children. It was adopted by a voice vote, and everyone applauded and congratulated each other and was happy. Then they came to the final vote on passage of the bill, and Murkowski voted "no." She voted against her own amendment and against helping homeless kids. That's where bipartisanship gets you.
Significantly, following that vote and the final passage of the whole COVID-19 relief bill, the guy who most endangered passage of the plan at the very end was preening Democratic Sen. Joe Manchin. Following an entire day of negotiating and pleading and Manchin ultimately backing down, the recalcitrant West Virginian appeared on no fewer than four Sunday shows and backed down some more. His longstanding opposition to eliminating the filibuster has cracked, and he's now willing to say that it could change: "If you want to make it a little bit more painful, make them stand there and talk, I'm willing to look at any way we can." That's what he told NBC's Chuck Todd. He told Fox News' Chris Wallace essentially the same thing—that the filibuster "should be painful if you want to use it."

'Were willing to put their lives on the line': House bill blocks deportation of military veterans
House Democratic legislators including the chair of the chamber’s Veterans’ Affairs committee have reintroduced legislation that would block the deportation of noncitizen U.S. military veterans, and allow eligible deported veterans to return home to the U.S. Because federal immigration officials don’t follow even their own policy, it’s unknown exactly how many veterans have been kicked out of the U.S. over the years. Advocates have estimated the number to be around 230.
“It’s a disgrace that veterans are falling through the cracks of our broken immigration system and being deported,” Veterans’ Affairs chair Mark Takano said, who reintroduced the bill with fellow Californian Juan Vargas and Arizona’s Raúl Grijalva. “Deported veterans are exiled from the country that they call home and that they fought to defend, and they face significant barriers to access the benefits they are entitled to and eligible for under the law. Congress must act and fix this injustice, and passing this comprehensive legislative package can help us achieve that.”
