here's our north america correspondent peter bowes with his assessment.den to claim victory on this because it actually has not yet been passed by congress and there are significant aspects of this deal, as the president is describing it, that could cause him problems and perhaps one of his own making because he is linking this infrastructure bill to another quite separate measure related to his american families plan, his social infrastructure, which involves getting extra paid leave for americans, extra money for child care, and the president is now saying that he won't sign one without the other, and there are still negotiations on both sides, so perhaps it is premature to claim victory. i think what the president can celebrate is the fact that he has got this far and that he has managed to bring republicans and democrats together to debate — and clearly, there have been compromises on both sides — that he at least has the basis for something that could ultimately be passed by congress to begin to solve this infrastructure problem in the united states
