When Joe Biden was elected President last year he promised to bring unity to a country that was highly divided during the Trump presidency.

However, he and the Democrats quickly forgot that campaign pledge to bring unity and healing to our divided nation as evidenced by Biden and the Democrats’ massive $3.5 trillion dollar spending bill called the “Build Better Act.”

The 2,465-page bill which promises to significantly expand America’s social safety net, is Joe Biden’s chief legislative priority, and if passed will fund everything from expanded Medicare funding, free community college and the fight against climate change.

If passed, the “Build Better Act” promises to be the largest entitlement and social welfare program since FDR’s “New Deal” legislation during the Great Depression of the 1930’s.

However, Biden and the Democrats’ new legislation is highly partisan and transgresses Biden’s pledge to bring unity to the United States since they plan to approve their “antipoverty, healthcare and climate plan” without one single vote from the opposition since this massive legislation faces unanimous opposition from Republicans in Congress.

Biden and the Democrats are trying to force this highly partisan, enormously expensive, and pork-filled bill through the budget reconciliation process that avoids the filibuster in an attempt to pass this controversial legislation on a simple majority vote.

However, with the Senate evenly divided between Democrats and Republicans, the Democrats might not be able to pass this partisan legislation due to serious reservations by moderate Democratic Senators Joe Manchin and Kyrsten Sinema of Arizona.

So much for the “unity” Joe Biden promised to bring to America. His “Build Better Act” seems like just another partisan Democratic power grab to me.
