Biden Makes Push For Final Passage Of Sweeping Social Spending Bill

In a White House speech, Biden insisted the legislation is “fully paid for” and called it a historic economic deal.

(Washington, DC) — President Biden is urging Democrats to support his social spending package in an effort to finally get it passed through Congress. In a White House speech, Biden insisted the legislation is “fully paid for” and called it a historic economic deal. The framework expands the social safety net while making a significant investment in the fight against climate change. Biden has little margin for error with a razor thin majority in the House and a 50-50 Senate, though Vice President Harris can act as a tiebreaker in the Senate.
