President Joe Biden has proposed a range of new policies in the last few weeks. Facing a spate of mass shootings but dim prospects for any gun measures in Congress, the president will visit the California city where a gunman killed eight people. President Biden will propose a 5.2 percent raise for federal employees, the largest increase the White House has put forward since Jimmy Carter was in office. He will also unveil the first phase of an ambitious three-nation nuclear submarine deal next to the leaders of the United States, United Kingdom, and France.

The president has also taken steps to address both crime and immigration. In response to the recent mass shootings, President Biden has proposed a number of gun control measures, though it is unclear if these will pass Congress. In addition, the president has inflamed fellow Democrats by taking action on immigration, introducing a number of policies that some argue are too lenient.

On the domestic front, President Biden has proposed a number of policies aimed at strengthening the nation's economy. He has proposed making the Medicare trust fund solvent beyond 2050, and has expressed his support for a Republican resolution to block new District of Columbia crime laws. This has been met with criticism from some Democrats, including Eleanor Holmes Norton, the delegate to Congress from Washington, D.C.

President Biden is also taking steps to strengthen the nation's security. He has expressed his support for a bill sponsored by Sens. Lisa Murkowski and Dan Sullivan and Rep. Mary Peltola of Alaska that would reapprove the Willow Creek Mine in Alaska. The mine has been an important source of jobs and economic development for the region, and the bill would help secure the future of the mine.

President Biden has also taken action to strengthen the nation's international ties. On his first foreign trip as president, Biden visited a war zone that carries special meaning. He also announced a three-nation nuclear submarine deal with the United States, United Kingdom, and France. This deal is seen as a way to strengthen ties between the three nations and to ensure that the world's nuclear powers remain responsible.
