Federal infrastructure plan receives bipartisan support

Contact: Peter King, Maggie Douglas

Last week, a bipartisan group of Senators reached a deal with President Biden to invest $1.2 trillion into the country’s infrastructure. The agreement makes transformational and historical commitments to clean transportation and water infrastructure, universal broadband infrastructure, clean power infrastructure, remediation of legacy pollution, and resilience to the changing climate. This breakthrough agreement provides critical, long-term investments in rebuilding our nation’s infrastructure and preserving our current physical and virtual assets. Find more information from the White House and the National League of Cities.
