GOP Senator John Barrasso said moderate Democrat Sinema is 'not going to be easily twisted.'
Republicans hoped the moderate pair of Democrats would block their party's spending bill, known as the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022, which contains funding for healthcare and climate initiatives. Republicans argue the bill's spending will increase government and therefore inflation, but Democrats say it would lower inflation by reducing the federal deficit.
Their hopes were dealt a blow last week when Manchin announced his intentions to vote for the bill. His announcement meant that all eyes turned to how Sinema would vote. Senator John Barrasso, a Wyoming Republican, offered praise for Senator Kysrten Sinema, an Arizona Democrat, as Republicans hope she will kill her party’s Inflation Reduction Act—and Democrats need her support for the bill to pass.

In total, it would allocate $369 billion to energy security and initiatives to fight climate change, while another $64 billion would fund a three-year extension of the Affordable Care Act program and allow Medicare to negotiate prescription drug prices, according to a bill summary released by Senate Democrats.
