President Joe Biden on Friday sent Congress a $6 trillion budget proposal that would spend big on infrastructure, climate change, and social welfare packages, while creating projected deficits of at least $1.3 trillion per year until 2030.

If passed, the plan, which faces strong opposition from Republican lawmakers, would become the biggest sustained government spending since World War II.
