Prior to his inauguration, then President-Elect Joe Biden released a $1.9 trillion proposal to address the ongoing coronavirus pandemic on January 14, 2021. Although the price tag may be too high for some Senate Republicans, his administration hopes it can garner enough bipartisan support to pass Congress by March.
If Democrats are unable to persuade enough Republicans to meet the 60-vote threshold to move legislation in the Senate, Majority Leader Charles Schumer is considering using the reconciliation process to advance a bill with a simple majority, which could require Vice President Kamala Harris to break a tie in the evenly divided chamber.
Reconciliation requires that Congress first pass a budget resolution, which could slow the process by several weeks. The same process was used to pass former President Donald Trump’s signature tax reform legislation in 2017.
