Pres. Joe Biden takes 'giant step forward' on COVID-19 relief, but challenges lie ahead.

The Senate passed the bill with only Democratic support, despite the president's hope the bill would earn bipartisan votes, as previous COVID-19 packages have, allowing him to follow through on a well-worn campaign pledge to work across the aisle. “I’m going to succeed. We're going to succeed moving forward. Look, the American people strongly support what we're doing. That's the key here. And that's going to continue to seep down through the public, including from our Republican friends. There's a lot of Republicans who came very close, they’ve got a lot of pressure on them. I still haven't given up on getting their support,” Biden told reporters following his remarks.

“The end result is essentially about the same. And so, I don't think any of the compromises have in any way fundamentally altered the essence of what I put in the bill in the first place." The White House has remained tight-lipped about what its next legislative push will be after the relief package. Biden has already introduced a sweeping immigration proposal that would give 11 million undocumented immigrants a pathway to citizenship and has held bipartisan meetings on infrastructure.

In the weeks since Biden was inaugurated, the White House has been laser-focused on getting what would be one of the biggest stimulus plans in U.S. history through Congress, curating Biden’s public remarks and appearances to promote the plan that would give $1,400 direct stimulus checks to most Americans, allocate $130 billion to reopen schools and provide $160 billion for vaccinations and testing.

Awful

Nothing to do with Covid. 91% PORK CHARGED TO AMERICAN TAXPAYERS.

Liar

Joe Biden is so Zen while doing the job of President. There is no political ambition in this for him. Its just about serving the nation

Word do ppls have to do I hope I can still receive the stimulus package even if I do owe the IRS please let it be

Fact check: Been a cakewalk for Biden so far.

Why ? What are you canceling next? Toilet paper ?

Giant step forward on the national debt

One issue at a time...US Press. 46 days...in Office w/o normal transition and many cabinet office holders still vacant.

A real president that’s not just concerned about his ego getting ******* and his pocketbook wow !

He is doing an amazing job!

Of course. The challenge is, he has no plan. 👍👍

He's a puppet that's all.

. His greatest challenge lies in tackling our deadliest enemy, Communist China, which he thinks is our friend ! . Communist China wants to destroy us, in order to dominate the world, and he thinks China is our friend ! . I didn't vote for him ! .

He not doing nothing but lying to you all!! When he was in office with Obama what did Biden do 🤔 Nothing and now that he in office he still not doing nothing but lying and some of you still going for his lies.

How do illegal aliens cash checks? How do Prisoners cash checks Is that the challenge?

I find it amazing Cuomo is going down for everything Biden had been doing for years and maybe even a little more than Cuomo except Biden did a lot of his sexual advances on kids and with some women as well

As long as American trust President Biden, they will buy American goods having priority.

Biden has 2 years to pass whatever he wants. Joe Manchin is not an obstacle. His concerns makes Dems stronger. Did you really think he'd put his own agenda ahead of all struggling America? No. His hearts in the right place. And we welcome his input The left are UNITED! Yay!

Lie?

so what do you call the first two relief bills under Trump?

Gracias por informar y que sigan pasando un feliz domingo y comienzo de semana, señores periodistas.

You're welcome

The classic 'we have to vote it in to see what's in it'.

Challenges, 'lies ahead'. There I fixed it for you.

Every republican leader voted against the bill but the folks who voted them in office should not be able to benefit from the democratic party relief package

30% of US Adults (21+)* have received at least 1 shot! COVID cases down 75%! States using 2020 CDC Vac Guidelines, many moving to later Phase = shots to Teachers. 240M doses, ordered in 2020, to be delivered in March! Pandemic ends in April!! *Based on 197m, CDC (5d)

Trumplicans are the reason this country is so destroyed and divided And the trumplicans are trying to keep it that way. Trumplicans want a dictatorship

ABC News should just say, 'So far, so good!'

Thanks for not letting us be happy just for a second.

Why don't you do a press conference about it?

This is what they think you’re worth $1400 x’s the let’s say 8 months of not being allowed to work =‘s $175. Just imagine if you owned a business and lost it due to all this bullshit. The American people continue to take it in the ass from our Government. We need Term Limits.

Primarily the fact that he's gone senile & doesn't now where he is half the time..

But I put a Lid on My Day at 1 PM,so you all have Fun, where's Kamala ?

LOL. This is pure propaganda. Where is the $2000 he promised? How much useless pork is in this? I don't see how people call themselves journalists anymore...

This is not a COVID relief bill, only 300B is for families

. CCP China is like a Covid-19 virus. It must come in contact with you, to infiltrate you, to sneak into your no-defense zone, to take over your production mechanism, to harm you & then to destroy you ! . The only way to handle this evil, is to isolate it, & decouple it. .

The GOP-led efforts to restrict voter access in Georgia is cocky and evil. Why are they afraid of fairness if their policies and deed are best interests of the voters?

A true leader has the confidence to stand alone, the courage to make tough decisions, and the compassion to listen to the needs of others. — Douglas MacArthur

It's a leg up not a hand out it's now up to us to show we are serious about making changes to bring the US back stronger and more productive than ever before. We need more educated people in the work place and in the Government, doing the jobs they were actually trained to do.

Joe is taking good steps, he's gonna make American proud.

One giant step for sleepy joe is getting out of bed and to the office without falling asleep again

He did what he said he would do, something you don’t see from politicians in this day and age. He is a man of his word and needed so bad at this time in our divided country

So nice not to hear POTUS stroke his own ego every day.

Kinda sounds like a 'great leap forward'.

Yup, next step is to get rid of the majority of Republicans that can’t live without sucking on Donald Trump‘s D% by voting them out. That way Biden can make certain transactions faster. They’re holding him back

And when a real press conference

Lie is the correct word in that sentence.

A giant step for Sleepy Joe is getting up from an afternoon nap.

Did he though how about giving Americans more than $1400 like he promised. Math doesn’t work out to 1.9 trillion

Worst Prez ever

This media so negative. You want trump to comeback?

It’s going to be seen as a major success against a divisional Congress. Proving that the right can’t get past their self immolation over false rhetoric. If Democrats have to save the country by themselves they will. RePUGnicans will still take credit. Elect Democrats next time.

When’s the next stimulus relief check coming? Because we all know people are still gonna be struggling come Sept. 6

That’s an understatement, but after all his years of experience, Joe’s got this.

President’s job always has challenges.

There is nothing positive with these media.

?😜😜😜😜

So we are providing checks to less Americans but will provide checks to prisoners and illegal aliens, so much for helping the tax paying Americans. The American Relief Act seems to provide the least amount of relief to American citizens. Fooled again!!!

Yes, Mr. President, challenges lie ahead. All Republican obstacles challenging your work. But you will make it with our support. Rest assured... We the people will help you make it.

Man ABC, you are a downer...it passed let us have a minute to be happy.

It's hard to believe there are no recurring payments for those who are hurting, $1400 is a joke.

Biden has not done anything Trump did not do on this Virus. Trump got us 2 checks and a Vaccine, Joe one check and riding Trumps coat tails on any vaccine. Joe has not done anything

First experience happens to be a total failure but I never give up because I knew it was going to work out for me trying continuously, fortunately but now I am smiling by getting involved with you DavidLingleyBT

Yeah, that's why Trump had $2000 ready for us and Joe waited and waited and waited...! Trump2024

Mental challenges?

Manchin isn't a moderate Democrat. He's a fucking Republican.

I trust President Biden to do his best for all Americans.

Biden cares about all Americans! Trump cared about Trump. Congressional Republicans care about their donors. Who do you care about?

There are always challenges

👇🏻

Challenges wouldn't lie ahead if he listened to science & paid people to stay home for a month. Should have done that day 1 and we would be almost back to normal and 100k wouldn't have died on his watch.

Yeah...

Buyers remorse?

Failing miserably on his Covid campaign promises and he didn't even have to worry about having the vaccines developed. That was already done by the time he took office. Fail

When are we gonna see this deposited? I need a new iPhone

Here's what you can expect to get from Biden´s 'Victory lap': - No promised $15 Minimum Wage Hike - $1,400 Survival Checks based on 2019 tax data instead of promised 'IMMEDIATE' $2,000 Survival Checks for all Americans...

Recently, the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights issued a report criticizing the United States for long imposing sanctions on other countries on the grounds of its domestic law and seriously violating their human rights. do the Western media know?

Challenges spelt out as GOP

The Democratic Party just needs to realize that the current GOP will never put the nation first over their own party agenda and stop trying to work with them.

Chaeos

So weird.

Republicans here why is it corporate only gets money

not 1 republican voted to help people not 1 Remember that next election

When we allow the imagination to run free we may find that it throws some frightening ideas. Understand what should you do before and after getting a COVID-19 vaccine

After the $1400 checks, when’s the other $600 coming? Asking for a friend

“The failure to win Republican support for the widely popular bill has also raised questions about the viability of Biden’s future legislative agenda”

More good news please(((

Biden lied.

Yes there are challenges when you attempt to actually do something rather than pout over your lost election and foment insurrections
