During his first, unofficial “State of the Union” address on Wednesday night, President Joe Biden is expected to unveil a $1.8 trillion bill dubbed the American Families Plan. This is considered a companion bill to the American Jobs Plan — the “infrastructure” plan projected to cost $2.7 trillion over a decade — which he is also expected to discuss Wednesday.

“The American Families Plan is an investment in our children and our families—helping families cover the basic expenses that so many struggle with now, lowering health insurance premiums, and continuing the American Rescue Plan’s historic reductions in child poverty,” the White House said in a statement.
