The U.S. Senate voted 50-49 along party lines early Wednesday to support a $3.5 trillion blueprint for President Joe Biden’s agenda.
- The bill paves the way to expand government’s role in trying to reduce poverty, protect the environment and improve care for the elderly, Bloomberg reported.
- Bitcoin barely reacted to the vote, holding above $46,000.
- The bill follows a $1 trillion infrastructure bill that the U.S.. Senate passed Tuesday and that included contentious crypto tax-reporting provisions.
