I think one big initial test for Biden, Sarah, is the sweeping coronavirus relief bill he’s said will be one of his first priorities. Over the past year, Congress has been in a pretty much constant state of deadlock over relief measures that economists and public health experts say are necessary to keep the country afloat in a time of crisis. Biden’s relief package is certainly bold, but he could really struggle to get Republicans on board with the $1.9 trillion price tag. And of course, it looks like the Senate could be juggling a second impeachment trial for Trump at the same time.
