Janet Yellen Readies Big Changes for Treasury – The New York Times

Neither the President-elect, nor I, propose this relief package without an appreciation for the country s debt burden. But right now, with interest rates at historic lows, the smartest thing we can do is act big, Ms. Yellen will say, according to a copy of her opening remarks, which were reviewed by The New York Times.

It will not be an easy task. Democrats hold a slim majority in Congress and Republicans have already expressed concern about Mr. Biden s plan and its impact on the budget deficit, which topped $3 trillion last year.
