The US Senate has passed a bill for an infrastructure investment plan totaling 110 trillion yen, which is an economic measure that is essential to President Biden.
On the 10th, the US Senate passed a bill for an infrastructure investment plan totaling 1 trillion dollars in 5 years and 110 trillion yen in Japanese yen, and passed it with a majority of supporters.
This plan is an economic measure that is important to President Biden to create new employment using national funds, but the budget scale was reduced to half of the original plan by reflecting some opinions of the opposition party and the Republican party that emphasize fiscal discipline. The target is also focused on the development of traditional infrastructure such as roads and bridges.
However, although the bill was passed by the Senate, in the House of Representatives to be deliberated in the future, there are voices from left-wing members of the Democratic Party that this plan considering the Republican Party is not enough to rebuild the lives of the people. , There is no prospect of a passage in the House of Representatives.
For this reason, the Democratic Party's executive department has indicated that it will enact a larger budget bill amounting to 380 trillion yen, including support for childcare and education, in addition to the infrastructure investment plan. Deliberation will continue.
