8. Consistent with what Joe Biden has said

Biden on Thursday afternoon said he wouldn't sign into law a scaled-down bipartisan package unless Congress also passes his ambitious social spending agenda in a linked reconciliation package, which would likely pass with only Democratic votes.

"If only one comes to me, this is the only one that comes to me, I'm not signing it," he said of a bipartisan infrastructure deal.

"It's in tandem," he added, referring to liberal Democrats' demands that a larger reconciliation package including elements of the $2.25 trillion American Jobs Plan and $1.8 trillion American Families Plan become law at the same time.
