August was a big month on Capitol Hill, but September is going to be even bigger!
Lawmakers in Congress moved forward with a bipartisan $1 trillion infrastructure package and the Democrats followed shortly behind with a $3.5 trillion budget blueprint that, combined, will advance critical pieces of the Biden Administration’s ambitious policy agenda.
Many of our clients and colleagues have commented on the importance of these packages:
- The AFL-CIO is ready for Congress to deliver on the promise of millions of good-paying union jobs
- America’s Voice pointed out that the reconciliation package includes funds for a pathway to citizenship for immigrant youth, TPS holders, farm workers and essential workers
- SEIU shares that the budget blueprint will create “a million new home care jobs for a workforce that reflects the future of our country”
- Sierra Club called the package a “a crucial step toward delivering bold investments at the scale of the crises our communities”
