Hi - I was practicing this on my own and I found an interesting example that I’m struggling to parse. The excerpt is as follows - “ The Republican-backed budget reconciliation bill could lead to higher U.S. yields by increasing federal deficits and accelerating the growth of government debt, but it is unlikely to undermine investor confidence in the short to medium term.”

I think I am getting tripped up by the double verb in the original predicate - however, I believe the main grammatical parsing should take place in the object clause. Any help would be appreciated!
