It is the first time in a de- cade the party has held the full sweep of power in Washing- ton, and Democrats say they have no time to waste trying to broker compromises with Re- publicans that may, or may not, happen. They have watched Republicans use similar pro- cedural tools to advance their priorities, most recently the Trump administration’s GOP tax cuts. The fast-moving events days into the new majority on Cap- itol Hill come as the White House continued meeting privately with groups of Re- publican and Democratic law- makers in hopes of striking a bipartisan agreement. Biden’s COVID-19 aid package in- cludes money for vaccine dis- tribution, school reopenings and $1,400 direct payments to households and gradually boosts the federal minimum wage to $15 an hour over five years. The next steps remain highly fluid. The bipartisan Problem Solvers Caucus of more than 50 House lawmakers met vir- tually Tuesday with top admin- istration officials on the virus aid and economic recovery package. And the dozen senators emerging from a lengthy pri- vate meeting with the White House on Sunday evening are talking on their own to try to craft a more targeted bill. The bipartisan senators assembled privately again Monday eve- ning. White House press secretary Jen Psaki told reporters earlier Tuesday that Biden is still look- ing to negotiate on an aid pack- age, while putting a priority on acting swiftly before aid lapses in March. “He laid out his big package, his big vision of what it should look like, and people are giv- ing their feedback,” Psaki said. “He’s happy to have those dis- cussions and fully expects it’s not going to look exactly the same on the other end.” quirky spirit of Portland, and beyond,” according to the hotel’s website. Hotel Grand Stark will have 57 rooms.

Grand Stark Deli, the hotel’s in-house deli, will serve “an approachable all-day menu,” according to the hotel website, with fresh baked English muf- fins, assorted schmears, house- cured salmon gravlax, breakfast sandwiches as well as deli soups, salads and sandwiches with “thinly sliced meats piled high.” Bar Chamberlain, a “classic hotel bar” will feature “expertly crafted cocktails” a “largely nat- ural wine list” and throwback hotel restaurant dishes such as burgers, roasted chicken, steak au poivre, crispy oysters, shrimp cocktails and “towering Cae- sar salads to be eaten with your hands,” the hotel website says. ation that hurts other sectors of U.S. agriculture. R-CALF’s opposing view was signed by groups such as the Cattle Producers of Wash- ington and the Stevens County Cattlemen’s Association, whose members raise beef for U.S. consumers. The letter was also signed by groups representing ru- ral residents, small farms and U.S. manufacturers, including the Coalition for a Prosperous America. Prosperous America CEO Michael Stumo said the U.S. shouldn’t base its trade policy on fears about what smaller countries will do. “Otherwise we’re just wimps,” he said. Stumo said he expects the Biden administration to be open to protecting blueberry farmers. “I don’t think the administration change will make a difference in this case,” he said. BY LISA MASCARO AND JOSH BOAK The Associated Press Officials at the Port of Coos Bay say they plan to move forward and seek alternatives for their channel modification project despite the recent disruption of the Jordan Cove pipeline project, which the channel modification has been partly dependent on. Coos Bay Continued from A11 The Port of Coos Bay cur- rently has Roseburg Forest Products and Jordan Cove listed. “I think the biggest thing folks need to understand is the channel modification as it is today needs to have Jor- dan Cove go through,” Laura Hicks, the channel modifica- tion’s project manager at the U.S. Army Corps of Engi- neers, told the Capital Press in the fall. Port officials agreed that if Jordan Cove fell through, they would need to search for an alternative beneficiary. And that’s exactly what they’re do- ing. Barber of the port told the Capital Press Monday that port officials have recently seen “a marked uptick in en- tities reaching out to us due to the significant congestion currently plaguing West Coast ports.” Barber said the port is in conversations with potential investors and beneficiaries that would allow the channel modification to move forward even without Jordan Cove. Barber declined to name any potential beneficiaries, saying that “with all of our projects, we are bound by non-disclosure agreements.” Even if the port finds an al- ternative beneficiary, officials have other challenges to con- tend with. Last month, the governor slashed $15 million in funding for the port’s channel mod- ification from her proposed state budget. Legislators, in- cluding Sen. Arnie Roblan, D-Coos Bay, are pushing back. “I’m confident we’ll get at least some portion of that money back,” Barber said last month. WASHINGTON — Senate Democrats are preparing to push ahead quickly on Pres- ident Joe Biden’s $1.9 trillion COVID-19 relief package even if it means using procedural tools to pass the legislation on their own, leaving Republicans behind. Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer told senators to be ready to vote as soon as next week on a budget recon- ciliation package that would lay the groundwork for swift passage. Coming so soon in Biden’s administration, the action provides a first test of Republican opposition to the White House priorities as well as to the new president’s prom- ise of a “unity” agenda. “The work must move for- ward, preferably with our Re- publican colleagues, but with- out them if we must,” Schumer said after a private meeting of Democratic senators. “Time is of the essence to ad- dress this crisis. We’re keeping all options open on the table.” Unwilling to wait for Repub- licans who argue Biden’s price Hotel Continued from A11 The new hotel falls under Palisociety’s independent col- lection, which also includes Los Angeles’ Silver Lake Pool & Inn, and attempts to “repre- sent an elevated reflection of the creative movements and Blueberries Continued from A11 Find it all online bendbulletin.com Associations representing commodities that depend on overseas customers — such as apples, wheat and soybeans — argue that tariffs on foreign blueberries could lead to retali- Jacquelyn Martin/AP Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer of N.Y., left, speaks to the media with Sen.
