While the bipartisan infrastructure package passed the Senate with significant support from both parties back in August, it has been held up in the House by progressive Democrats who have threatened not to support the bill unless moderate Democrats also support the larger Democratic package. This impasse has remained firm for the past few months as moderates and progressives have jockeyed over the size and scope of the package, but few details remain to be settled.<\/p>\n<p>In its near-final form, the Democratic reconciliation bill will include a total of $1.75 trillion in spending with $400 billion for child care and pre-k, $150 for home care, $200 billion for the Child Tax Credit created in the American Rescue Plan passed earlier this year, $555 billion in clean energy and climate investments, $130 billion in Affordable Care Act credits, $35 billion to expand Medicare coverage for hearing, $150 billion for Housing, $40 billion for higher education and workforce training, and $90 billion in other miscellaneous investments. It\u2019s important to note that some of these amounts may change before the bill is ultimately passed, but this is a good picture of what the final bill will likely contain. To offset all of this spending, Democrats also plan to include revenue raising provisions which are estimated to capture up to $1.9 trillion. These provisions include a 15% corporate minimum tax, a stock buybacks tax, reforms to prevent firms from offshoring jobs and profits so as to avoid US taxes, an adjusted gross income surcharge on the top 0.02% of earners, closure of select Medicare tax loopholes, investments in the IRS to capture more tax revenue, and changes to how the government purchases prescription drugs. Importantly, changes to step-up in basis which were originally proposed do not seem likely to be included in the final bill.<\/p>\n<p>With these details established, it is now only a matter of finalizing the bill text, passing the larger Democratic bill in the Senate, where moderate Senators Joe Manchin (D-WV) and Kyrsten Sinema (D-AZ) have been the largest holdouts, and then passing both bills in tandem in the House of Representatives. As of writing this article passage of both bills seems likely in the next week or so, but nothing is guaranteed until President Biden signs the bills.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"height: 36px;\">\n<td style=\"width: 100%; height: 36px; text-align: center; background-color: #d9aa1c;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\"><strong>Agriculture and Food<\/strong><\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"width: 100%;\">\n<div align=\"justify\">\n<h3 data-tadv-p=\"keep\">Supply Chain Woes<\/h3>\n<p>Whether it\u2019s backlogs at ports, congestion at railroad hubs, or slowdowns at manufacturing plants, the American public is seeing supply delays and rising prices.\u00a0 The National Grange and 49 agricultural producer, commodity, agribusiness and food-related national organizations filed extensive comments with the Department of Transportation and the President\u2019s Supply Chain Disruptions Task Force, detailing extensive recommendations to support resilient, diverse and secure supply chains.\u00a0 Recommendations included transportation policy, infrastructure, container shipping, inland waterways, rail service and climate policy.<\/p>\n<h3 data-tadv-p=\"keep\">World Food Prices Reach 10-Year High<\/h3>\n<p>Food prices worldwide are highest in a decade.\u00a0 On a year-over-year basis, prices were up 32.8 % in September.<\/p>\n<h3 data-tadv-p=\"keep\">Cattle Contract Library Legislation<\/h3>\n<p>The House Agriculture Committee voted unanimously to pass the bipartisan Cattle Contract Library Act of 2921 (H.R. 5609) in late October.\u00a0 The Act would establish a library of contracts for USDA\u2019s Agricultural marketing Service to report terms of alternative marketing agreements between packers and producers.\u00a0 Its intent is to add more transparency and competition to the cattle market.
