    You know, it seems like a lot of plans have been coming out of the White House lately, that sound absolutely amazing. But given the timing, I have to wonder how much of this is them throwing anything they can at the wall to see what sticks.

    Don’t get me wrong, at this point, I’d vote Biden over Trump even if the man was literally comatose. But I’m just wondering if this is an attempt by the Biden admin to get any allies they can get in preparation for a convention fight and a difficult election when the candidate himself has proven to be unable to motivate people.

      Is this your first election cycle? It is SOP for the incumbent administration to push big popular legislation when it is coming up to election time. There will be even more coming in the next few months.
