The Build Back Better Act’s marquee provisions have been the focus, but Democrats have swept dozens of obscure measures and special interest breaks into the $1.85 trillion bill.
The White House and bipartisan lawmakers have agreed on a package that would provide funding for roads, bridges and other physical infrastructure.
A bipartisan package includes the largest-ever federal spending for electric vehicle charging stations, public transit and clean water.
Experts say the details of the spending will matter — and that, in some areas, more money will be needed to fix beleaguered roads, bridges and other infrastructure.
Democrats hope to include climate and clean energy in a second bill. It could be Biden’s last chance to pass major global warming legislation.
