Last week, President Joe Biden said during a CNN town hall it's unlikely Democrats will be able to get tuition-free community college in the social-spending bill they're negotiating. But that isn't stopping Michigan Rep. Andy Levin from fighting for its inclusion.
"We are working on it right up until the final buzzer," Levin told Insider during a Tuesday interview. "And I'm not going to stop playing the game and tussling and sweating until the whistle sounds and the game's over."
Levin is the original sponsor of the House version's America's College Promise Act, which makes the first two years of community college tuition-free. This proposal was included in Democrats' initial plan for their reconciliation bill.
