Those seem like reasonable compromises and Biden trying to get some compromises to get a deal seems like the job he was elected to do.
Free community college doesn't really seem like a winning policy anyway. It's basically free up to middle class families anyway. I have a step daughter in community college. they calculate her fees based on my wife and her ex's income and she pays no tuition, gets credit on her books and some money for living expenses.
Also community colleges classes are pretty packed already and you have to be on top of registration to even get in all your classes. Making it free for everyone would stress the system even more.
It's an idea that sounds good, but in practice wouldn't help too many people and might cause more problems than it fixes.
