It has a TON to do with healthcare. It would expand hearing and vision coverage for medicare, likely dental too but right now not in effect for years (cause teeth are expensive which is it's own problem).
It would allow govt to negotiate drug prices which should ideally save money e.g. less tax increases needed for pay fors.
Perhaps amongst some other things like more obamacare subsidies.
But i'm sadly not super optimistic. I think biden's initial plan was huge knowing it would get negotiated down. But now we're being held hostage and it will probably get small....
I would also argue pre-k, food, expanding child tax credit are key to health too.
