After months of work, Democrats in Congress are poised to unite around President Biden's consensus plan to build back better.
We are going to get this done because America needs us to get it done. Here is what it means for families across the country:
 * 
   A
   massive
   investment
   in
   child
   care. 
   Universal
   and
   free
   preschool
   for
   all
   3-
   and
   4-year-olds
   in
   America.
   A
   guarantee
   that
   no
   family
   will
   spend
   more
   than
   7%
   of
   their
   income
   on
   child
   care.
   And
   an
   extension
   of
   the
   $250-300/month
   refundable
   child
   tax
   credit
   that
   has
   already
   delivered
   the
   largest
   one-year
   reduction
   in
   childhood
   poverty
   in
   American
   history.
   
 * 
   An
   historic
   investment
   to
   tackle
   climate
   change. 
   We
   are
   investing
   in
   domestic
   production
   of
   solar
   energy,
   wind
   energy,
   battery
   technology,
   and
   green
   technologies
   that
   will
   reduce
   carbon
   pollution.
   We
   will
   offer
   new
   tax
   credits
   to
   reduce
   the
   cost
   of
   adding
   solar
   to
   your
   home
   or
   buying
   an
   American-made,
   union-made
   electric
   vehicle.
   And
   we
   are
   creating
   a
   Civilian
   Climate
   Corps
   that
   will
   hire
   300,000
   people
   to
   work
   in
   our
   public
   lands,
   improve
   climate
   resilience,
   and
   do
   the
   work
   of
   taking
   on
   climate
   change.
   
 * 
   Expand
   affordable
   health
   care
   for
   millions
   of
   Americans. 
   This
   plan
   reduces
   premiums
   for
   9
   million
   Americans
   and
   delivers
   coverage
   to
   4
   million
   uninsured
   people
   whose
   states
   have
   refused
   Medicaid
   expansion.
   And
   we
   will
   offer
   hearing
   benefits
   to
   older
   Americans
   through
   Medicare.
   
 * 
   Invest
   in
   rebuilding
   America's
   infrastructure. 
   With
   the
   agreement
   on
   the
   Build
   Back
   Better
   plan,
   we
   will
   be
   able
   to
   pass
   the
   bipartisan
   infrastructure
   plan.
   This
   plan
   includes
   big
   investments
   in
   rebuilding
   our
   roads
   and
   bridges,
   expanding
   Amtrak,
   expanding
   broadband
   internet
   access
   to
   rural
   communities,
   building
   a
   national
   network
   of
   electric
   vehicle
   charging
   stations,
   funding
   low
   and
   zero-emission
   buses
   and
   ferries,
   and
   so
   much
   more—all
   of
   it
   creating
   millions
   of
   well-paying
   jobs
   to
   do
   the
   work.
   
 * 
   And
   it
   is
   all
   paid
   for
   by
   taxes
   on
   corporations
   and
   wealthy
   Americans. 
   President
   Biden
   kept
   his
   promise
   of
   no
   tax
   increases
   for
   the
   middle
   class.
   This
   plan
   includes
   tax
   increases
   on
   people
   making
   over
   $10
   million
   a
   year,
   and
   implements
   a
   new
   corporate
   minimum
   tax
   of
   15%
   on
   overseas
   profits.
As I said, Democrats are going to get this done . Governing is hard work and it is often messy and frustrating. But in the end, we are going to prove that good people can come together and figure it out—and deliver for the American people.
