BIRMINGHAM, Ala. (Nov. 19, 2021)--The Biden Administration's Build Back Better bill--which includes funds to expand Medicare and other senior services--took a step forward Friday when it passed in the House of Representatives.
The $1.75-trillion bill, which would put about $150 billion into home- and community-based services, passed 220-213. It now heads to the Senate for review; Sen. Majority Leader Chuck Schumer said his goal is to pass it before Christmas.
