White House counteroffers $1.7 trillion infrastructure proposal
NY Post
The White House has laid out a more modest $1.7 trillion infrastructure bill to Senate Republicans, coming down from the $2.23 trillion initially proposed in response to an earlier GOP counter offer, White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki told reporters on Friday.
The pared-down proposal still comes with a significantly higher price tag than the $650 billion counter-offer Republicans made in response to Biden’s initial plan, which Republican lawmakers have called a “progressive wish list.” Republicans expressed reluctance to the White House’s first proposal, raising concerns about a number of provisions that would not traditionally be considered infrastructure, arguing that to get bipartisan support Democrats would need to narrow the scope.More Related News
