Today, Senators Roger Wicker (R-MS) and Debbie Stabenow (D-MI) introduced amendments to the HEALS Act that would fully restore advance refundings and create a new BABs program exempt from sequestration. The Chamber still remains far from a deal with the House and Administration, with little progress made this week.
**We continue to work with key Senate offices on inclusion of advance refundings and direct pay bonds as the Senate continues to deliberate a final package. While the introduction of amendments is a good sign, probability of passage and inclusion remain an uphill fight.
