Biden's Covid Bill Passed The House, But Can It Pass The Senate

 The United States has been dealing with the Covid-19 Pandemic for almost a year now. Efforts had been made in the past to decrease the chances of the virus spreading such as in-state mask mandate and closing of buildings. Although these adjustments have made a difference for the nation, Covid-19 is still ravaging strong. Then a vaccine was made to finally end the pandemic the only issue is the spread of getting the vaccine out was very limited in the United States. Biden's new bill though plans to eliminate that along with one other topic. The bill as stated in the article would ensue 1.9tn dollars for Covid vaccines as well as raise the minimum wage to 15 dollars to promote economic prosperity. That concept of raising wage was just recently rejected by the senate. Other than the next couple of days it will be very important to see how this bill plays out in the senate. Funds for the vaccine would allow for an easier spread and means of production so a sense of normality could be closer to us than meets the eye. Of course, the one key issue concerning this topic is the aspect of anti-vaccine people. Personally, I feel they need to throw that belief away for a bit in order to ensure a greater future for America. It'll only be a matter of time before we see how this Bill we are voted. Will it be that pivotal moment everyone is looking for?
