How Biden’s $4.5 Trillion Plan Can Become Law

The House Budget Committee completed the virtual markup of the Build Back Better Act on September 25. The legislation will now move to the House Rules Committee for additional review and potential changes, before it can get submitted to a chamber vote.

Committee chairman John Yarmuth (D-KY) said via press release that the House is “one step closer to delivering these visionary investments to the American people” in “a paradigm shift.”

Pelosi followed with another press release a day later, saying that the House is “working together with the Senate and the White House on changes” to the Build Back Better Act.

She added that the debate for the $1 trillion bipartisan bill will start on September 27, with a vote on September 30 (which is when the extension for the Surface Transportation Reauthorization Act is set to expire).

The House Ways and Means Committee passed a part of the budget bill for the $3.5 trillion infrastructure plan on September 15 with a 24 to 19 vote. This legislation, which proposes over $2 trillion in tax hikes for corporations and the wealthy, did not have any Republican support. And while the tax provisions are smaller-scale than President Joe Biden’s initial proposals, one House Democrat also voted against them.

PITTSBURGH (AP) — President Joe Biden outlined a huge $2.3 trillion plan Wednesday to reengineer the nation’s infrastructure in what he billed as “a once-in-a-generation investment in America” that would undo his predecessor’s signature legislative achievement — giant tax cuts for corporations — in the process.

Speaking at a carpenters union training center in Pittsburgh, Biden drew comparisons between his hard-hatted proposed transformation of the U.S. economy and the space race — and promised results as grand in scale as the New Deal or Great Society programs that shaped the 20th century.

“It’s not a plan that tinkers around the edges,” Biden said. “It’s a once-in-a-generation investment in America unlike anything we’ve seen or done since we built the interstate highway system and the space race decades ago. In fact, it’s the largest American jobs investment since World War II. It will create millions of jobs, good-paying jobs.”

UPDATED SEPTEMBER 27, 2021 3:40 PM


After Boise’s hottest summer on record, the next weather pattern to hit the area is expected to bring gusts of wind potentially up to 40-50 mph in the wee hours of Tuesday morning.

With a cold front approaching from the Pacific Northwest, the wind gusts could hold steady between 15-25 mph overnight with the strongest gusts between 2 a.m. and 4 a.m., according to the National Weather Service.

“It looks like shortly after midnight it’ll enter Idaho and then move across the rest of the state,” said Anna Lindeman, a National Weather Service meteorologist in Boise, in a phone interview. “We’re going to see very gusty winds along this cold front but it’ll probably be fairly short in duration.”
The cold front coming through could cause the temperature to drop about 20 degrees. The National Weather Service predicts a high of 58 degrees on Tuesday and a high of 62 degrees on Wednesday.

There’s a 40% chance of rain showers Tuesday morning before a dry forecast for the rest of the week. The upcoming weekend temperatures in the 70s are more normal for this time of year, Lindeman said.

During a June storm, wind gusts exceeded 60 mph.
