New Democrat Coalition Endorses Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act and Build Back Better Framework

Today, the New Democrat Coalition (NDC) announced its endorsement of the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act and the Build Back Better Framework. From the beginning, New Dems have been advocating for swift action on legislation to enact President Biden’s ambitious economic agenda, bringing historic and transformational investments to America. 

The Coalition has worked with the White House and Congressional leadership to ensure that the Build Back Better Framework included the NDC’s top policy priorities: extending the enhanced Child Tax Credit with full refundability, building on the Affordable Care Act to get us closer to universal coverage, addressing the existential threat of climate change in a big way, and empowering communities to create lasting jobs and opportunities. New Dems will continue fighting to secure these priorities, finalize the Build Back Better Act text, and pass both bills as quickly as possible to deliver immediate results for the American people. 

“The New Democrat Coalition has always been committed to delivering real change for Americans with smart and long-term policies,” said NDC Chair Suzan DelBene (WA-01). “Democrats ran on growing the economy, creating jobs, improving health care, protecting our planet, and supporting families. Our communities need these investments now, and that’s why we are endorsing the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act and the Build Back Better Framework. The Coalition is grateful for President Biden’s leadership throughout this process and stands ready to pass this once-in-a-generation agenda as soon as possible.”

The New Democrat Coalition has been pushing to pass the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act and to finalize and pass the Build Back Better Act as soon as possible. Now is the time to pass these bills to modernize our nation’s infrastructure, grow our economy, and support our communities.
