US president travels to Michigan in effort to sell his infrastructure and social proposals to the American public.
Facing a deadlock in Congress, United States President Joe Biden on Tuesday travelled to the state of Michigan to sell his ambitious social spending and infrastructure proposals directly to the American public.
Biden’s signature $3.5-trillion spending and tax proposal and a $1-trillion infrastructure bill have hit roadblocks on Capitol Hill as members of the president’s Democratic Party have been unable to agree on the size and scope of his proposals.
“These bills are about competitiveness versus complacency. They’re about opportunity, versus decay,” Biden said during an address at a union training centre in Howell, Michigan, on Tuesday afternoon.
