Members of Congress posted pictures of dogs amid a “ruff” week in Congress as progressives barked at a scheduled vote on the $1.2 trillion bipartisan infrastructure bill – a vote that got delayed on Thursday and is on its way to being delayed again Friday.
Rep. Susan Wild (D-PA) tweeted a picture of her dog Zoey and added the caption “Did someone say Bark Back Better?,” a play on President Joe Biden’s mantra “Build Back Better.”
