President Joe Biden makes the case for his two-track infrastructure initiative, on Wednesday, a day after leading Senate Democrats agreed on a $3.5 trillion plan billed as the biggest boost in decades for U.S. families.
Biden is expected to urge his fellow Democrats in the Senate to back both a $1.2 trillion bipartisan infrastructure deal to rebuild America’s roads and bridges, and a larger reconciliation package that also addresses climate change and the need for stronger social services in a lunch meet today at 12:45 pm.

“The president looks forward to returning to Capitol Hill, a place he spent 36 years as a member of the Senate. He will continue making the case for the dual-track approach that will build the economy back better with key investments in not just our nation’s infrastructure, but our efforts to protect our climate, to prepare the next generation of workers, and to support middle-class families.” a White House official said.
