Coverage of the President’s proposal is wall to wall. Here are the top 5 things you need to know.
- President Biden laid out a big picture vision and promised a second installment in a few weeks.
- The first installment of spending (roughly $2.25 trillion) is paired with significant additional taxes on corporations. Read the White House Fact Sheet for all the details.
- We expect the second installment to be of similar size and paired with significant additional taxes on individuals.
- The legislative strategy is still developing. Speaker Pelosi announced yesterday she intends to move the ‘infrastructure’ package through the House by July 4.
- The vote count will determine what becomes law. The House margin is 3 and the Senate margin is 0. Progressive and Moderate reaction is already pulling the package in opposite directions.
