Democrats brace for new spending fights over Biden agenda
Democrats are bracing for intraparty fights over crafting a multi-trillion dollar package to advance President Biden’s agenda.
The House this week adopted a $3.5 trillion budget plan that paves the way for lawmakers to pass the forthcoming legislation without any Republican votes. But the approval of the budget measure came after Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) was pressured into striking a deal with a group of moderate Democrats who were threatening to derail the party’s spending plans. |
