Joe Biden legislative agenda going nowhere 1 year into presidency

About Me

President Joe Biden, who ran on his deep relationships in Senate and ability to
build bridges, will cap off his first year in office with his legislative agenda
at a standstill – unable to get his Democratic Party fully united and facing
steep opposition from Republicans.

Biden's major legislative priorities are in limbo after Democratic Sens. Joe
Manchin of West Virginia and Kyrsten Sinema of Arizona didn't cave to Biden's
pressure and refused to roll back the filibuster to pass legislation without GOP
support.

Joe Biden legislative agenda going nowhere 1 year into presidency



Biden will mark the one-year anniversary of his Jan. 20 inauguration with no
clear path forward on passing high-priority voting rights legislation and his
Build Back Better social spending plan. He candidly acknowledged his struggles
Thursday after a meeting with Senate Democrats at the Capitol.

"The honest to God answer is I don’t know whether we can get this done," Biden
said of his voting rights agenda.

"I hope we can get this done, but I’m not sure," he added.

Biden is grappling with razor-thin Democratic majorities in the House and Senate
which have proved problematic to passing some sweeping reforms the Democratic
base wants. Just one Democratic senator has the power to scuttle his plans in
the 50-50 split Senate.

A group of Republicans was willing to go along with Biden's $1 trillion
infrastructure bill that he signed into law in November to rebuild the nation's
crumbling roads, bridges, ports and more. It was a major legislative win and
realization of his promise to bring the two parties together.

But the comradery was short-lived.

Now Republicans say Biden's agenda is out of touch and too extreme to garner
their support.



"It is really telling that there were Americans that voted for President Biden
hoping that he could somehow emerge as a leader," Sen. Joni Ernst, R-Iowa, told
Fox News Digital. "And he has proven that he does not have the capabilities to
be a strong leader."

Ernst blames Biden for rising inflation, the deadly and hasty withdrawal
fromAfghanistan and a surge of migrants at the Southern border. She says Biden's
priorities are out of step with what Iowans want.

Asked how his legislative agenda was faring, Ernst replied: "I'm glad that you
reminded me that President Biden has an agenda, because I have forgotten he had
one. It really has gone out the window."

Biden further alienated himself from Republicans with a heated speech in Atlanta
this week when he urged the Senate to get rid of the long-standing filibuster to
pass voting rights bills and implied those who didn't support the legislation
were on the side of racists like Bull Connor and George Wallace.

A fuming Sen. Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., blasted Biden's speech as "profoundly
unpresidential" and "deliberately divisive."

"I have known, liked, and personally respected Joe Biden for many years,"
McConnell said Wednesday. "I did not recognize the man at that podium
yesterday."



Aside from the bipartisan infrastructure package, Biden's other major
legislative win last year was the $1.9 trillion coronavirus relief bill he
signed into law in March without any GOP support.

The package included a $1,400 check for many Americans, an extension of a $300
weekly unemployment aid supplement through Sept. 6, as well as a one-year
expansion of the child tax credit. It also provided hundreds of billions of
dollars in funding for state and local governments, vaccine distribution efforts
and small businesses still reeling from the pandemic.

Ten months later, the pandemic is far from over. And Biden's other main
legislative vehicle to boost the economy and expand the social safety net is on
ice.

The $2 trillion Build Back Better social spending and climate change bill has
effectively died in the Senate with Manchin announcing in December that he
couldn't support it.

Biden had a history of working productively with Manchin and affectionately
called him Jo-Jo. Biden even appointed his wife, Gayle Manchin, to serve as
federal co-chair of the Appalachian Regional Commission. The job pays roughly
$163,000, according to a federal database.

Unable to convince Manchin to support his agenda, Democrats Friday turned to
touting the benefits of the previously passed infrastructure bill as a way to
move on.

House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer, D-Md., said he thinks Biden has been working
very hard to pass the voting rights and Build Back Better bills, but he faults
Republicans for the setbacks.

"In order to get things done … you need two parties," Hoyer said when asked
about the Biden agenda by Fox News Digital. "It takes two to tango."

He said Republicans are trying to deny Biden any more victories for political
reasons, which he says is "sad."



"No matter how hard the President of the United States works, if one party is
determined, for political reasons, to oppose something because it would give a
success or a victory to the President of the United States, that is very
shortsighted and harms the country," Hoyer said. "You're not harming Joe Biden
personally. What you're harming is the country."

Thursday marks the one-year anniversary of Biden's inauguration. Republicans are
planning to mark the occasion by highlighting Biden’s first year of "failure"
and arguing the GOP is better equipped to lead.

NOTE: Is Biden's presidency doomed?

President Joe Biden is struggling politically. Recent polls have shown that his
approval ratings continue to fall. According to CNN's Poll of Polls, the
President stands at 42%, while Quinnipiac's January poll placed him at 33%.
Those are the kinds of numbers that would leave any White House unsettled.

The fate of the Build Back Better legislation remains precarious, while the
President's emboldened words about the Freedom to Vote Act and the John Lewis
Voting Rights Advancement Act were tougher than ever. On Tuesday, he asked
elected officials, "Do you want to be on the side of Dr. King or George
Wallace?" in what appeared to be a question implicitly targeting Sens. Joe
Manchin of West Virginia and Kyrsten Sinema of Arizona, who still refuse to
accept the filibuster carve-out that would allow the voting rights legislation
to overcome Republican opposition. Even worse, Omicron has driven up
hospitalizations and left huge swaths of the population despondent about when
the pandemic will come to an end. "It's déjà vu all over again," as the baseball
legend Yogi Berra liked to say.

Others complain that the President isn't even doing a good job showcasing his
many accomplishments. "Jobs, jabs, infrastructure, prosperity and peace," one
columnist urged in a piece criticizing Biden for failing to boast enough about
what his administration has done.

Then there is inflation. Rising prices are overwhelming all good economic news
in recent days, including low unemployment and a buoyant economy. Although
initially many economists thought that the price increases would be
"transitory," the widely accepted outlook is that inflation will remain high for
a while. One Nevada voter, Laura Godinez, who told CNN she used to lean
Republican but had shifted toward the Democrats in recent elections, commented:
"I don't want to say this, but when Donald Trump was here, it was nothing like
this."

Does this all add up to a doomed presidency? That question will naturally enter
into the minds of Democrats as they speculate about where this is heading,
particularly with the distinct possibility that Trump could run again in 2024.
Those who are worried should find some solace in the fact that contemporary
presidents have been able to come back from difficult moments like these.
Challenging first terms don't inevitably put a commander in chief on path toward
a one-term presidency. It's possible to struggle in the polls, deal with
difficult economic challenges and criticism from different factions of one's own
party and still go on to be considered a successful two-term president.
