Congressional Democrats continue to inch closer to their goal of passing President Biden’s Build Back Better agenda into law. On October 28, the Administration released a new framework that Democratic leaders hoped would unite the wings of the party, but disagreements over some of the key programs remain.
The framework, however, does drop many of the tax increases that had been proposed by the President or included in earlier versions of the reconciliation bill, many which would have impacted commercial real estate. While these developments are positive, the negotiations remain fluid. Additional changes were released November 3 and more may yet emerge.
