The Democratic primary race has gotten heated over the past week as the field of candidates has been narrowed down to just three, including frontrunners Joe Biden and Bernie Sanders. Sanders attacked Biden at a Detroit rally, criticizing the former vice president over "disastrous trade deals" and accused him of trying to cut social security. Biden told the Vermont senator to "get real" on Twitter. Nikole Killion reports on where the campaigns stand ahead of the next round of primaries.

Senate Democrats say they have agreed on a $3.5 trillion infrastructure plan which they aim to pass through budget reconciliation, meaning no GOP votes are needed if all Democrats are onboard. The mammoth bill would include most of President Biden's original proposals on climate, health care and child care – but could imperil the narrower bipartisan infrastructure deal. CBS News correspondent Laura Podesta reports on the latest on "CBSN AM," and CBS News political reporter Grace Segers joins with analysis.

One of the candidates, Virginia Delegate Lee Carter, joins CBSN's Lana Zak to discuss some of his progressive policy proposals, including a plan to use newly legalized cannabis sales to fund reparations for Black and indigenous communities, and why he wants to "own the label" as a self-proclaimed socialist.
