Biden to Announce Reconciliation Framework in Last-Ditch Effort to Unite Caucus ahead of Foreign Trip
October 28, 2021 | District of Columbia
President Biden will announce a revised framework for his administration’s reconciliation package on Capitol Hill Thursday after meeting privately with House Democrats, multiple outlets reported.
The move comes as House Democratic leadership attempts to schedule a vote on the $1 trillion bipartisan infrastructure bill that failed to make it across the finish line in August. Biden’s trip to the Hill to announce the reconciliation framework is intended to reassure hesitant progressives who have refused to vote on the infrastructure bill until they’re confident reconciliation will pass.
