The bipartisan infrastructure bill is making its way through the US Senate. This past weekend, 67 senators — including 18 Republicans — voted to cut off debate on the massive package, clearing the way for a final vote early this week.

Yet the bill also thoroughly exposes the glaring problem with the Republican Party’s opposition to additional taxes on corporations and the wealthy.
