jesse: we are back with "the new republic's" kate aronoff to discuss a new bill that she says is detrimentalthe bipartisan infrastructure bill supported by the white house, we expected to be pushed through the senate later this month. but the version they are working on cut out some of the president 's key climate initiatives including carbon free electricity and clean energy tax incentives. why were those pieces left out and what effect will that have on the bill? kate: to give context, when we talk about things cut out, the american jobs plan, the american -- the administration put out months ago and it is already for climate activists and people paying attention to the atmosphere, it is already a compromise. the american jobs plan was about $1 trillion in climate spending to be spent over eight years, which compared to the scale of the crisis is about 1% of gdp, not on par with an existential crisis or what economists say is necessary to deal with the crisis. so the bill was already small and what we are getting in the bipartisan infrastructure package, the virtue of being in negotiation

republic. after all, the new nation had no centralizing power and the survival of the republic depend on a virtuous citizenry. in a culture of new laws without precedents or history, women were in charge of what they call manners, meaning those behaviors and practices that seemed more eternal and stable than the new political innovations being constructed on the spot. and then there were other formulations which you read about for this week. republican wives for instance, were to use their power during courtship and their sexuality to keep new american citizens on the political straight and narrow. these ideas about women had their roots less in the theories of john lock and thomas payne that had informed the rebellion itself and more on the ideas of a scottish enlightenment and intellectual school of thought developed by david hume, adam smith, and others. in place of political equality, liberty's daughters were being given social equality. if that seems like a consolation prize, it was. though it failed utterly to address women's legal status, the historical construct we call republican motherhoo
