President Biden talked about the U.S. House of Representatives passing the $1.2 trillion infrastructure bill by a vote of 228-206 after weeks of negotiations between progressive and moderate Democrats. Thirteen Republicans voted for the plan and six Democrats voted against it. Progressives had insisted that passage of the infrastructure bill should coincide with voting on President Biden’s social spending plan, but House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) moved forward with the infrastructure vote after moderates demanded that the Congressional Budget Office should have time to estimate the cost of the spending bill. Speaker Pelosi indicated the president’s social spending plan would come to the House floor after the Veterans Day recess. The infrastructure plan had previously passed the U.S. Senate 69-30 with 19 Republicans joining all Democrats. President Biden took questions from reporters after he gave his prepared remarks. close
