The White House pumped the brakes Tuesday about the prospects of passing “historic” bipartisan legislation over the next two years despite President Joe Biden’s repeated vows to work with Republicans following November’s midterm election results.
Brian Deese, the director of Biden’s National Economic Council, addressed the subject when asked by reporters if comments made by House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA), who characterized the CHIPS and Science Act, bipartisan infrastructure law, and more as “corporate welfare,” suggested Biden’s window for bipartisanship had closed.
