Report: Democrats Release 645 Pages of $3.5 Trillion Spending Bill Revealing Far-Left Wish List

House Democrats released 645 pages of the $3.5 trillion spending bill on Friday, revealing a vast far-left wish list that includes global warming, tax increases, expanded child tax credit, medicare expansion, and a national paid-leave program.

Ways and Means Committee Chairman Richard Neal (D-MA) told the Wall Street Journal the “proposals expand opportunity for the American people and support our efforts to build a healthier, more prosperous future.”

The Journal’s report of the massive spending bill did not address the unintended consequences such large spending would have on an economy stuggling under  Bidenflation and a labor shortage fulled by excessive unemployment benefits.

A key component of the bill is the expanded child tax credit, which Democrats propose to permanently expand from $2,000 to $3,000. The current amount of $2,000 originally began in March and will expire in December. Democrats may feel further subsidizing Americans will help the party win more votes in the upcoming 2022 midterms.

“House Democrats did propose making one feature permanent—making the credit fully available to households regardless of income. Progressive advocates have pressed for that decision, arguing that making it permanent now would make it harder for Republicans to change later,” the Journal reported.

...subsidized racial equity and environmental justice initiatives.

What the heck does that mean?

Meanwhile, self-described socialist Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) is the architect of the massive spending package, which currently includes items such as expanding Medicare, amnesty, global warming initiatives, and suburb displacement with low-income housing, subsidized housing, subsidized child care, and subsidized racial equity and environmental justice initiatives.

I kind of want to see that happen. Let the suburban moms, who voted for the Rats, find out what kind of unsocialized behavior follows low-income housing.
