Biden’s major $4.1T win with moderates putting infrastructure on tracks

Published

on

In what is a major win for Joe Biden, the US House of Representatives has agreed to move forward with the President’s huge $4.1 trillion dollar economic boost

The House voted 220 to 212 to allow Democrats to begin work on the $3.5 trillion social benefits package, and move ahead with the bipartisan infrastructure bill by September 27.

This follows US Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi striking a deal with the President just hours earlier.

The deal ensured moderates would support the vote that will adopt the $3.5 trillion budget resolution and set the agenda for a vote on the $550 billion infrastructure bill.

Pelosi and a group of 10 moderates were previously in a stand-off about which way the House should go… threatening to withhold support entirely.

The Biden administration has been working hard to gain the support of both sides and move forward with the packages.

Moderate lawmakers had voiced their desire to vote on the Senate-backed infrastructure bill first before moving ahead with the broader spending package.

Cheddar’s Political Director Megan Pratz joined tickerNEWS and laid out how the 4.1 trillion agreement went down.

However, progressive Democrats were of the opposite view and wanted to press pause on the infrastructure vote until the spending package was passed.

Pelosi says it remains that the House must work together and ensure Americans get what they deserve.
