“President Joe Biden’s first big legislative package sped through Congress. The next one could take at least half a year to pass — if it can get to his desk,” Politico reports.
“Biden and Hill Democrats on Wednesday began a months-long sprint to pass a $2.5 trillion bill to shore up the nation’s physical infrastructure, paid for by hiking taxes on corporations. Republicans are already balking, dismissing Biden’s attempted outreach as disingenuous, and preparing a messaging campaign against the package that will almost certainly force Democrats to go it alone as they juggle competing wish lists from their members across the ideological spectrum.”
John Harwood: Biden made stimulus look easy. Selling tax hikes for infrastructure will be harder.
