Biden breaks the Trump era – but his $ 1 trillion trillion plan faces significant hurdles

Washington In the US, all signs point to increased spending: Joe Biden’s first full budget draft, presented by the president on Friday, is $ 6 trillion. Not only does Biden want to push through two hefty $ 1 trillion packages and raise taxes, he also wants to increase budget spending for the 2022 fiscal year, which begins October 1.

The United States government sets new priorities. While military spending will increase only slightly, government spending is planned to increase significantly on clean energy, education, research, social projects, and digitization.

Republican Representative Nikki Haley wrote on Twitter: “The alarm bells should go off on every American citizen.” If the US Congress approves Biden’s budget, “we will all pay for it: with higher taxes, a damaged economy, less freedom, a bleak future,” the former UN ambassador said.
