Meet Simeon — a 17-year-old aspiring architect from Baltimore, MD. He commutes 2.5 hours on public transit (each way) for his retail job.
The Bipartisan Infrastructure Deal will help Simeon — and millions of Americans — get around more easily. https://t.co/Z9dXYpoBdn

Universal preschool.
Historic climate investments.
Lower health care costs.
They’re all within our reach. Let’s bring these bills over the finish line.
With the Bipartisan Infrastructure Deal, we’re going to:
- Make the largest investment in public transit in American history
- Make high-speed internet affordable and available everywhere
- Strengthen our infrastructure against the impacts of climate change
My Build Back Better Agenda and Bipartisan Infrastructure Deal are once-in-a-generation investments that will transform the lives of families across this country.
We have to get this done.
High-speed internet is essential in the 21st century, but too many Americans lack access to it.
With the Bipartisan Infrastructure Deal, we’re going to change that.
Three years ago, a lone gunman took 11 lives at the Tree of Life Synagogue. It was the deadliest act of antisemitism in our nation's history—and a reminder that we must rally against hate in all its forms.
May the memories of those who lost their lives forever be for a blessing.
I wish all my meetings were this fun. On Monday, I got to see firsthand the type of high quality preschool that all 3- and 4-year-olds would have access to under my plans. Let’s get this done. https://t.co/w977jzJTSh
The Bipartisan Infrastructure Deal will create good-paying, union jobs at prevailing wages. https://t.co/boMOF0ruWE
Every American family deserves access to high quality, affordable child care.
My Build Back Better Agenda will make it a reality.
Make no mistake: Climate change is an existential threat to humanity.
We need to act. We need to pass my Build Back Better Agenda.
Under my Build Back Better Agenda, no middle class family will spend more than 7% of their income on child care.
And we’re going to extend the historic middle class tax cut for parents — the expanded Child Tax Credit — we passed through the American Rescue Plan.
When the Portal bridge was first built, it was state of the art. But that was over 110 years ago.
Nowadays, it’s a chokepoint.
We’re moving forward on a new bridge — and with my infrastructure bill, we’re going to make sure projects like this are just the beginning. https://t.co/QmULLBFoYY
Today, I participated in the annual U.S.-ASEAN Summit, where I discussed our commitment to strengthening our partnership with ASEAN. We will continue to work together to end the COVID-19 pandemic, address the climate crisis, promote economic growth, and more. https://t.co/VywnjFZQ1d
We have to once again build America from the bottom up and the middle out — not the top down. https://t.co/buXXRdieyD
When we make the investments in my Build Back Better Agenda and Bipartisan Infrastructure Deal, there will be no stopping America.
We will win the future.
The existential threat to humanity is climate change.
In a few days, I am headed to @COP26 in Glasgow to demonstrate a commitment to the world that we will get to a net-zero emissions economy no later than 2050.
We haven’t passed a transformative infrastructure bill for decades in this country.
We need to get this done.
Studies show that the earlier our children begin to learn in school, the better. That’s why we’re going to make two years of high-quality preschool available to every child. I stopped by East End Elementary School to discuss how my Build Back Better Agenda will get it done. https://t.co/sJkRPd5Joj
Tune in as I deliver remarks on my Build Back Better Agenda and Bipartisan Infrastructure Deal. https://t.co/kIFK3Qdr22
It’s simple: a teacher shouldn’t pay a higher tax rate than an oil company. That’s what I’m trying to change.
My Build Back Better Agenda will make sure all children can attend a high quality preschool. https://t.co/hgtvvWkXxX
Today, I’m heading to New Jersey to highlight the need for my Build Back Better Agenda and Bipartisan Infrastructure Deal. This is our moment to invest in American families, revitalize our nation’s infrastructure, and win the competition for the 21st century.
My Build Back Better Agenda means free school for every 3- and 4-year-old in America. No matter their background.
Right now, under Medicaid, there are 800,000 people who qualify for home care and don’t have it. My plans will provide the funding for Medicaid so the elderly and people with disabilities can receive professional care at home.
This will make a huge difference for families.
Scranton isn’t my home because of the memories it gave me – it’s my home because of the values it gave me.
Those values are at the core of my plans for this nation. https://t.co/aGAO1tSxrM
Too many people with mental health needs feel they have nowhere to turn. Having a broken spirit is no different than having a broken arm – please, don’t be ashamed to seek the help you need. https://t.co/f8Q8tcyW0K
I promised not to raise taxes on anyone making under $400,000 a year. I’m going to keep that promise. https://t.co/6M3EjOwENw
I enjoyed speaking with President Macron of France today. I look forward to meeting with him in Rome later this month to continue the conversation, take stock of the many areas of U.S.-France cooperation, and reinforce our shared interests and common values. https://t.co/B1gvPcbtSL
I’ve said it before – when I think climate, I think of jobs. We can meet the moment on climate change, and create good-paying, union jobs with my plans. https://t.co/bfZIGy5c6K
Caregiving is at the center of my Build Back Better Agenda. We’re going to cut the cost of child care for working families by half. That’s huge. https://t.co/xnSm3ZDUgZ
After last night’s town hall, I had a chance to answer a few more questions from social media backstage:
My child tax credit is a tax cut for the middle class.
Middle class Americans will get a monthly payment of $300 for a kid under the age of 6, and $250 for kids over the age of 6.
A lot of Americans are a part of the sandwich generation: you have young kids and you have aging parents.
My Build Back Better Agenda will expand access to affordable home care through Medicaid and lower the price of child care.
Under my Build Back Better Agenda, parents will not have to pay more than 7% of their income in childcare.
Think of the difference this is going to make in the lives of families across the country.
We are one of the few industrial counties in the world that doesn’t have paid leave. My paid leave plan includes four weeks of federally funded leave.
It’s good for businesses and it’s good for families.
Look, we have two plans – one for our physical infrastructure and another for our human infrastructure. We need roads, highways, bridges, buses, and trains – and we need to make sure parents can afford child care, elder care.
My plans get it done.
When I ran for the presidency, I said I'm running for three reasons:
To restore the soul and decency in the country. To rebuild the middle class and the working class from the middle out. And to actually unite the country.
To those saying we can’t do it: I know that we can.
Compromise has become a dirty word – but bipartisan compromise is still possible.
I’m going to see it through. https://t.co/6cDhri0Ivg
We need to rebuild our infrastructure and our economy to give working class people some breathing room.
My plans get it done. https://t.co/6mxb84mW9j
I’m fighting every day to pass my Build Back Better Agenda for folks like Brandon. His story is like so many I’ve heard across the country. Folks are just looking for a fighting chance and to be treated with the dignity they deserve – and that’s what my agenda is all about. https://t.co/GFm9AShbEe
