As Biden approaches 100th day in office, Republicans admit difficulties in attacking his agenda

Biden has been unrelenting in his view that now is the time for bold change in America, and so far, Republicans have largely been unable to stop him.

Over the past few days, several major national polls have shown Biden with positive approval ratings.

It's difficult to run against a popular president who just funneled a massive amount of stimulus into the economy to help the country recover from the pandemic.

Republicans are increasingly becoming vocal about their predicament. https://www.businessinsider.com/biden-traditional-infrastructure-bofa-republicans-roads-bridges-plan-package-bill-2021-4

Republicans say less than 6% of Biden's plan is traditional infrastructure. BofA says it's more...

Bank of America said the physical capital will see immediate return on investment, while spending on nontraditional infrastructure will take longer.

Biden's longtime moderate sensibilities lend him credibility. @SenatorBraun of Indiana told The Hill that the GOP was doing "poorly" in countering Biden's agenda.

Progressives have overwhelmingly lined up behind Biden's policy agenda so far, helping give the president almost unanimous support among Democratic voters in the most recent polling numbers.

But Republicans think Biden is overreaching with his policies.

GOP members have forecasted that over time, voters will lose an appetite for Biden's larger spending proposals.

While Biden's approval on immigration issues remain his weak spot in polling, it has not significantly impacted his overall standing.

After facing pushback, Biden will set an increased cap on refugee admissions by May 15, the White House said. https://www.businessinsider.com/white-house-says-will-revisit-this-years-cap-refugee-admissions-2021-4

Following uproar, White House says it will raise this year's cap on refugee admissions — but not yet

The Biden administration says it is "unlikely" to accept as many as 62,500 refugees this fiscal year, but will propose an increased cap by May 15.
