WASHINGTON, (Reuters) – The negotiations between President Joe Biden and moderate Democratic Senator Joe Manchin for a domestic investment bill worth $1.75 trillion have gone badly according to a source familiar with their discussions. They are “far apart” regarding the content of a bill.

Sources said that Manchin would “zero out” the expanded child tax credit, which Biden and other Democrats wanted to include in the “Build Back better” legislation.
