President Joe Biden on Wednesday sought to revive his stalled economic plan, Build Back Better, hosting corporate executives at the White House who support the legislation.

“A lot of folks refer to this as just social spending,” Biden said at the event. “I see it this way: The Build Back Better plan lowers prices for families and gets people working. It creates the best educated workforce, hopefully in the world, and ensures we remain the most dynamic and productive economy in the world.”
