$1.9 trillion spending bill finally passing the house. it s been a huge effort for democrats. this bill includes everything from universal pre-k to paid family leave to climate change measures. a long road ahead, but how is the white house feeling tonight, you think? they re feeling great tonight, don, and for good reason. they re doing very large things in the pair of bills that have moved. the infrastructure bill, which has already become law, $1.2 trillion of investment, broadband, roads, bridges. and now the build back better plan, which includes substantial investments to combat climate change, efforts to subsidize health insurance for people, child care, expand universal pre-k. there s money for housing in this bill. there s an extension of child tax credits. there s a whole lot of spending in this bill going to make a
b birthday present with this victory. how confident is he now that the bill will pass in the senate? well, fred, the president is hoping to build off the momentum of that bill passing in the house, but it is not a done deal, and will be a heavy lift to get past in the senate. now, while the house version contains some major campaign promises like universal pre-k and billions of dollars for climate funding, it also includes some other proposals that may eventually be stripped out in order to get all 50 senators on board. that includes paid family leave, which is a top white house priority. but take a listen to president biden yesterday who acknowledged the long road ahead, and also said he is ready to sign whatever bill the senate sends its way. now that it passed the house, when do you expect it to land on your desk. it will take a while to get
