November 06, 2021The US House of Congress has approved the expected over $ 1 trillion-dollar infrastructure plan developed by President Joe Biden, thanks to the agreement reached between progressive and moderate dems. The plan, already launched by the Senate, is now going to be signed by the president. Biden's package of social and climate measures, totaling over $ 1.8 trillion, will be voted on by the House if the spending estimates drawn up by Congress match those of the White House. This is the most important measure launched by Congress since Biden arrived at the White House along with the $ 1.9 trillion package approved last spring to combat the pandemic and its economic and social consequences.



The launch of the plan, a bipartisan text, represents a great victory for President Biden, both for its historical significance and for the agreement reached through a compromise between the parties.

The package, which represents one of the pillars of the White House's economic agenda, foresees, among other things, an expenditure of 550 billion dollars to modernize the transport network, develop broadband and reform the public service network.
