  • Ep. 62 - The Biden American Rescue Plan
    On this episode, Steve has a full plate of things to cover including:
    Covid Update - declines showing in new ases, hospitalizations and death rates. Small drops but significant.
    Latest Congressional activity- Dems pass Biden American Rescue plan - $2.19 Trillion. Some trimming expected out of Senate-House conference committee. Dems use Senate Finance Comm Budget Reconciliation process to pass bill on 51-vote party vote.- Dems show willingness to use this process when needed, but Biden and Dem leadership would prefer bi-partisan agreements- Dems need to rely on generating positive outcomes for the country to convince moderate conservatives to join and work with them. Words won't work.- Republicans need to recognize the new reality. They will need to reach across the aisle and combine with Dems to get positive things done for their constituents.
    Discussion on building a third party or united voting block with minority caucuses in congress (Black, Hispanic and Asian-Pacific) which represents 137 votes overall.
