Biden's Second-Term Agenda: A Continuation of First-Term Goals

Focus on Civil Rights, Taxes, Social Services, Immigration, Foreign Policy, and Climate Change

  • President Biden's second-term agenda, if reelected, would largely mirror his first-term goals, with a focus on civil rights, taxes, and social services.
  • Biden's tax plans include raising the top tax rate to 39.6%, the corporate tax rate to 28%, and implementing a 25% minimum tax on the wealthiest Americans.
  • In social services and healthcare, Biden aims to reintroduce proposals from his original Build Back Better plan, including making two years of community college tuition free, offering universal preschool, and limiting the cost of child care to 7% of income for most families.
  • Biden's civil rights agenda includes protecting access to the ballot box, preventing police misconduct, restoring the nationwide right to abortion, and banning firearms known as assault rifles.
  • Biden's plans also include overhauling the country's immigration system, providing military support to Ukraine and Israel, and continuing to fight global warming with financial incentives for electric cars, clean energy, and stricter regulations on vehicles and power plants.
