Joe Biden Pitches House Democrats On Social Spending Deal

Huff Post  

LOADING ERROR LOADING WASHINGTON ― President Joe Biden presented House Democrats with the contours of a $1.75 trillion deal on his social spending and climate package on Thursday, aiming to convince wary lawmakers to vote on his bipartisan infrastructure bill by the end of the week. “I don’t think it’s hyperbole to say that the House and Senate majorities and my presidency will be determined by what happens in the next week.” Biden, speaking in the East Room of the White House before leaving for a global climate conference in Scotland, emphasized the impact of the social spending, the climate provisions, and the accompanying bipartisan deal on infrastructure on the lives of everyday Americans. The bill would also include $550 billion in clean energy and climate investments, which administration officials are calling the “largest effort to combat climate change in American history.” The White House claimed the Build Back Better Act will be fully paid for via a mix of new taxes on corporations and the wealthy, and will in fact reduce the deficit. Senior Biden administration officials said the president believes the framework will win the support of all 50 Democratic senators and will pass the House, though Biden intends to leave the exact timing of votes on both the Build Back Better bill and the Senate-passed bipartisan infrastructure bill up to Congress.
