Facing criticism from Republicans over his “American Jobs Plan,” President Joe Biden on Wednesday publicly challenged them to come to the table and hammer out a deal on infrastructure if they oppose what he’s laid out.
“We’ll be open to good ideas and good-faith negotiations,” Biden said in remarks following up on the rollout of his plan a week ago. “But here’s what we won’t be open to: We will not be open to doing nothing. Inaction simply is not an option.”
