What's in the most important climate bill in U.S. history
1 big thing - A podcast by Axios
The massive climate, tax and health care bill that Senate democrats passed over the weekend is expected to go to the House for a vote on Friday. If passed as is, the bill will become the largest climate legislation ever passed by Congress, and will invest roughly $370 billion in renewable energy, electric vehicles and other climate programs. Plus: the Senate’s spending bill leaves states on their own to ease the burden of childcare costs. And: the great Serena Williams’ next chapter. Guests: Axios' Ben Geman and Dana Goldstein, national correspondent at the New York Times.
