CNN
A sweeping $1.9 trillion social safety net bill is making its way through Congress and could make a key part of President Joe Biden's economic agenda a reality. Here are some of the lesser-known provisions in the Build Back Better bill.
A majority of the funding is focused on transforming the nation's social safety net by reducing the cost of child and health care, as well as combating climate change.
The Congressional Budget Office estimates that the legislation would increase the deficit by $367 billion over the next 10 years. But the White House has worked to make the case that the bill will be fully paid for when accounting for a proposal to enhance tax enforcement, which the CBO excluded.
