The party also to incorporate terms that make community college tuition-free for two years and provide green cards to millions of immigrant workers and families, among other things On the other side, the Republican opposition believes that another multi-trillion-dollar spending bill could cause prices to rise, harming middle-income households.

The Democrats’ advocate that the $3.5 trillion is the minimum needed for health care, climate, and other programs to refurbish America’s roads, bridges, airports, and waterways, which are major priorities for Biden.
