Makes unions bigger and more powerful: The bill revives a provision from an earlier version that would subsidize union dues that would only serve to strengthen the influence of union bosses and not American workers (page 1955).<\/p>\n<p>24. Pushes Democrats\u2019 wasteful and confusing school lunch agenda: $250 million for, among other things,\u201cprocuring\u2026culturally appropriate foods\u201d (page 275)<\/p>\n<p>25. Furthers radical abortion agenda: The bill would also further Democrats\u2019 radical pro-abortion agenda by allowing taxpayer money to fund elective abortions, subsidizing plans that cover them, and creating new ways taxpayer money could spent on pro-abortion facilities.<\/p>\n<p>26. Drives up costs on Americans\u2019 utility bills: Includes a tax on natural gas eventually up to $1,500 per ton that could cost the American economy up to $9.1 billion and cost 90,000 Americans their jobs (page 361).<\/p>\n<p>27. Includes kickbacks for the Left\u2019s green energy special interest network: $3 billion for \u201cenvironmental and climate justice block grants\u201d (page 373) and tens of billions more for green energy special interest subsidies, loans and other carve outs.<\/p>\n<p>28. Gives wealthy Americans tax credits: Hundreds of billions of dollars in \u201cgreen energy\u201d tax credits will be given to those who can afford expensive electric vehicles and other \u201cgreen\u201d innovative products (page 1434).<\/p>\n<p>29. Furthers Democrats\u2019 social justice agenda: Includes \u201cequity\u201d initiatives throughout the bill. In fact, the word is mentioned 32 times.<\/p>\n<p>30. Grants Deportation Protection and Work Permits to Illegal Immigrants: The bill would grant 5-year parole to certain illegal aliens who file for parole, pay a fee, and complete a law enforcement background check \u201cto the satisfaction of [Biden\u2019s DHS Secretary].\u201d Such a parole would include both travel and work permits, a REAL ID driver\u2019s license, and would be extendable until 2031 (page 862).<\/p>\n<p>31.Increases visa limit: Democrats would bypass annual limits on immigration by adding unused employment-based visas on top of the existing 226,000 family-preference visa floor and \u201crecapturing\u201d hundreds of thousands of previously issued visas from past years. The bill would also give lottery visas to anyone who was denied one due to the Pandemic or because of President Trump\u2019s immigration policies. (page 865).<\/p>\n<p>32. Grants fast-tracked green cards for those seeking middle-class careers in America: Language included in the bill exempts certain aliens from the annual green card statutory limits and has been described as a \u201chidden pipeline for U.S. employers to flood more cheap foreign graduates into millions of middle-class careers needed by American graduates\u201d (page 867).<\/p>\n<p>33. Increases energy dependence on OPEC, Russia and China: The bill includes mineral and energy withdrawals on federal lands (page 912) and overturns provisions included in the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act that authorized energy production in the Arctic that will result in 130,000 Americans losing their jobs and $440 billion in lost federal revenue (page 933).<\/p>\n<p>34. Exacerbates the chip shortage: The bill would fund the conversion of the Postal Service and General Services Administration vehicle fleet from internal combustion engines to electric engines at a time when there is a global microchip shortage and crippled supply chains (page 936).<\/p>\n<p>35. Democrats\u2019 feckless China bill is included: Concepts from the insanely weak Endless Frontier Act included, including billions of dollars in research funding that will likely result in American intellectual property going to China (page 954)).<\/p>\n<p>36. Punishes red states for failing to adopt Green New Deal provisions: Mandates \u201cconsequences\u201d for conservative states that don\u2019t meet the radical Left\u2019s \u201cgreen\u201d climate standards while at the same time adding nearly $4 billion for \u201cCommunity Climate Incentive Grants\u201d for cooperating states (page 1013).<\/p>\n<p>37. Paid Worker Leave Entitlement for the Unemployed: The new paid leave entitlement would mandate workers get 4 weeks of paid leave under which workers could \u201cself-attest\u201d their eligibility and do not even need to be currently employed. (page 1065).<\/p>\n<p>38.Advances a totalitarian and paternalistic view of the federal government: Includes grants for organizations to treat individuals suffering from \u201cloneliness\u201d and \u201csocial isolation.\u201d(page 1252)<\/p>\n<p>39. Further detaches individuals from employment and more reliant on government handouts: The bill spends hundreds of billions on welfare through manipulating the tax code [not even including the expansions of Obamacare subsidies] (page 1636).<\/p>\n<p>40. Tax benefits for the top 1%: The bill would increase by more than seven-fold the cap on state and local tax deductibility, meaning many of the top 1% wealthiest Americans would pay less in taxes.
