By Trevor Hunnicutt and Susan Cornwell WASHINGTON (Reuters) -President Joe Biden argued in his first speech to Congress on Wednesday that he had restored Americans faith in democracy nearly 100 days after he succeeded Donald Trump in office, and was set to unveil a $1.8 trillion spending and tax-credit plan. Biden appeared in the chamber of the U.S. House of Representatives at an event scaled back this year because of the pandemic, with a small, specially selected group of Democratic and Republican lawmakers arrayed before him, and the first woman to serve as U.S. vice president, Kamala Harris, behind him.

A graveside service will be held for family and invited guests only following the public funeral.
