The signing, followed a lavish ceremony on the lawn of the White House in chilly conditions saw Joe Biden welcome the big spend after weeks of intense negotiations.
Biden’s presidential approval ratings have dropped because of his handling of the economy and other issues but despite that – there were plenty of supportive chants of “Joe, Joe, Joe” from some in the crowd.
Biden received a standing ovation as he stepped to the microphone
There were representatives from all sides of the political coin at the event, with the president acknowledging just how beneficial this bill will be for millions of Americans.
This all comes at a time when the political landscape in the United States is highly polarised, with some Republicans even calling out their fellow party members who voted in favour of the big spend.
Biden says “this is how the system works, that’s American democracy” – noting that his party paved the way for democracy to deliver for the people.
Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer also spoke at the event and says this legislation is a big deal.
