Toomey asks for cryptocurrency compromise amendment to be added to infra bill, but Shelby asks for $50b defense funding amendment to also be added.

Toomey agrees, but Bernie objects.

Carper then comes back to ask for the crypto compromise to be approved. Shelby says, basically, only if you take my amendment. Carper refuses, and that means this crypto language is not changing

So technically it's not over... if @SenShelby changes his mind between now and the final vote on the bill (likely tomorrow morning), they could try again. That being said Shelby is known for being a pretty stubborn guy.

While we are all making requests... can we put "Free Britney" in there too? That's how this works right? Everyone gets what they want in the same bill or no one gets anything?

Come to think of it.. she might be able to help our military out too.
