Permitting deal down to the wire as senators look to the exits

Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse and other senators are negotiating an infrastructure permitting reform bill, and Whitehouse says talks are nearing a deal. The text is not final, and a Senate vote before the midterms is uncertain. Center outlets focus on the negotiations’ progress and the timing of a vote, while also reporting questions about wind and solar assurances and John Thune’s accusation that Democrats are delaying the deal.
