USA: Biden wants to support families more

The plan would cost about 1.8 trillion US dollars over a decade and is to be financed through tax increases and the more consistent collection of due levies, according to the White House on Tuesday evening. Biden wants to present the plans in his first speech to both chambers of the US Congress on Wednesday evening (local time; 3:00 a.m. CEST Thursday).

Biden is proposing investments of around $ 1 trillion and $ 800 billion in tax breaks for families, according to the information. Among other things, he wants to finance two years of pre-school education for three- and four-year-olds with around 200 billion US dollars.
