White House memo says public support of Biden agenda 'overwhelming'
The White House on Monday circulated a memo ahead of a critical week on Capitol Hill for President Biden's legislative agenda that highlighted public support in polling for Biden's economic package.
"As we enter the final phase of legislative negotiations over the President's economic package - the evidence is overwhelming that the wind is at our backs and the public is eager for both of these packages to become law," the memo states.
The White House is working to unite progressives and moderates in order to get both the Senate-passed infrastructure bill and a $3.5 trillion reconciliation package across the finish line.
Biden last week hosted several groups of lawmakers at the White House in hopes of resolving their differences. Progressives say they will not vote for the infrastructure bill until the $3.5 trillion package passes the House, but moderates have voiced concerns about the price tag and various elements of the larger package.
