WASHINGTON, Aug 5 (Reuters) - The U.S. Senate was pushing to finish work on a bipartisan, $1 trillion infrastructure bill late on Thursday, as leaders asked members to allow votes on a large number of amendments and final passage, lawmakers and aides said. "People want to finish, and move on to the budget, and go home," Republican Senator Cornyn told reporters. Cornyn said he thought the Senate would move to the votes on amendments, which could last late into the night, and "maybe be finished with the infrastructure bill tonight." But Senator John Thune, the Republican whip, said separately that he was not so sure there would be an agreement to finish the bill on Thursday. "I"d say it"s 50-50," he said. Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, a Democrat, said only: "We"re trying to get as much done as we can." Once the infrastructure bill is voted upon, the Senate was expected to begin work on a budget framework that Democrats hope would pave the way for a $3.5 trillion "human infrastructure" bill later this year. Progress on the $1 trillion infrastructure bill to finance construction of roads and bridges and expanding broadband internet service to under-served rural areas came despite the non-partisan Congressional Budget Office announcing that it would increase federal budget deficits by $256 billion over 10 years. Lead negotiators on the bill argued the measure would be financed in a way so as not to incur deficit-spending. The sweeping package of funding is one of Democratic President Joe Biden"s top legislative priorities. Senator Thom Tillis, one of the Republicans who voted to advance it late last month, said he did not think the CBO findings would diminish his support for the legislation. He added that the agency did not take into account some provisions of the bill that would lessen its impact on deficits. Other Republican senators, including Mitt Romney and Kevin Cramer, also continued to defend the bill. The CBO"s analysis said the bill will increase Washington"s revenue by $50 billion over the decade and increase discretionary spending by $415 billion. It did not include $57 billion in added revenue that senators estimated Washington would collect over the long term from the economic growth benefits of the infrastructure projects. It also did not count $53 billion in unused federal supplemental unemployment funds to be returned from states. The bill"s top two negotiators, Republican Senator Rob Portman and Democratic Senator Kyrsten Sinema, said in a joint statement that CBO was "limited in what it can include in its formal score" of the bill. They added that new spending in the measure is "offset" through the combination of new revenue and savings, only some of which was taken into account by CBO. In procedural votes in late July the bill garnered more than enough votes to indicate it could pass the Senate on a bipartisan basis, with more than a dozen Republicans joining the Senate"s 50 Democrats and independents. The Senate is trying to wrap up work ahead of a scheduled five-week summer recess.
