    The American Rescue Act was a budget reconciliation bill made by floor democrats, all Biden did was sign it, that doesn’t make it his legislation. The exact same is true about the Inflation reduction act. The CHIPS act is not of Bidens design either, and the gun violence act is hardly on the same level as the Infrastructure bill. A ‘signature’ bill doesn’t just mean any bill he signed weather he was part of the drafting, negotiations, etc. or not. The only one he has put that level of his own work into is the infrastructure act, that belongs to him. Plus even if they were his bills, your arguement then would be a budget reconciliation, something that is legally requred to be passed every session of congress, was his greatest feat? Thats not a better look than his actual signature bill being cut to one third.

        lmfao bro it’s a public process, no ones hiding who introduced, debated, or amended these bills and google is free. All you have to pay is attention.

          You don’t understand how the executive branch works with congress. They don’t design, introduce, or sponsor legislation. What the President’s liason does do is provide concept and negotiate.
