Joe Biden Joins Leftists to Push Moderates for $1.9 Trillion Spending BillCharlie Spiering 20 Oct 2021
President Joe Biden met with House Democrat leftists on Wednesday, pushing for a spending bill that would outlay $1.9 trillion, according to reports, down from his initial $3.5 trillion proposal.
Biden’s new ask includes funding to expand universal pre-K, expanding Medicare and Obamacare, subsidizing child care, and more funds for public housing, the New York Times reports.
The president wants to continue the child tax credit passed in his coronavirus rescue bill, but possibly for only one year to lower the final cost of the bill.
Biden would also likely abandon his plan to provide two years free community college and his clean electricity program.
