Episode 146: Biden calls for taxpayer funded community college for all during Illinois visit
President Joe Biden called for investment in both people and infrastructure during a speech Wednesday at McHenry County College, his first visit to the state since taking office.
He also called for higher taxes on the wealthy and corporations to fund two years of community college for all students. He said additional education was needed for the U.S. to compete with the rest of the world.
Unveiled before an April 28 joint session of Congress, the $1.8 trillion American Families Plan sets forth $1 billion for child care, universal pre-K for all 3-4 year-olds, free community college, and paid family/medical leave initiatives and offers $800 million in tax cuts for families with children, including a “historic expansion” of the child tax credit which would be allocated monthly.
