Biden agenda faces make-or-break moment as Democrats struggle to finalize deal
CNN
House and Senate Democratic leaders are scrambling to unite their party behind a massive economic package to implement much of President Joe Biden's domestic agenda, but substantial disagreements remain and could threaten to derail the effort.
Top Democrats have set a Wednesday deadline to finalize a deal and present a proposal that would dramatically expand the social safety net and address key priorities like health care and climate change, but it still remains a daunting task to unite the competing demands from moderates and progressives who have been at odds over the price tag, scope and many of the details.
