Senate Democrats voted Saturday to begin debate on a sprawling bill that aims to lower health-care costs, combat climate change and reduce the federal budget deficit, a critical step in a grueling journey to deliver on President Biden’s long-stalled economic agenda.
The vote, which drew unanimous Republican opposition, came seven months after internal bickering scuttled Democratic efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and lower prescription drug costs — key parts of a larger package party leaders regard as essential for retaining control of the House and Senate in this fall’s midterm elections.
