includes more than $600 billion in funds to repair and modernize the country’s roads, bridges, ports and rail systems. The proposal also calls for major investments to develop electric-vehicle infrastructure, expand high-speed internet to rural communities, build affordable housing, retrofit public buildings and upgrade the nation’s drinking water systems.
The release of Biden’s initial infrastructure proposal will likely lead to an extending period of negotiations that could change the substance of the bill dramatically before it reaches Congress for a vote. The broad concept of improving America’s infrastructure has significant support from members of both parties, and Democratic leaders have said they would like the final legislation to be bipartisan.
Some on the left say Biden’s plan doesn’t go far enough. A group of progressive lawmakers have released their own infrastructure proposal that calls for $10 trillion in spending on green energy projects and climate justice initiatives over the next decade.Unlike the relatively swift process that was used to pass Biden’s coronavirus relief bill, negotiations on the infrastructure plan are expected to drag out well into the summer and possibly into the fall.
Damn wasnt long ago where a few hundred billion did the job. Democrats have no concept of spending. Theyre like children playing monopoly
Except apparently the Chinese bought all the raw materials. Carry on.
Yes, Biden’s plan is the right blueprint for America. 🇺🇸
Or massive union payback boondoggle.
