The plan includes $180 billion to rail and bus systems, $65 billion to ports, airports and waterways, $110 billion for water and sewer systems, $100 billion for energy infrastructure, and $20 billion for public and tribal lands.
Cited by the Times, Chuck Schumer said “our urban and rural communities have their own unique set of infrastructure priorities, and this proposal would provide funding to address those needed upgrades that go beyond the traditional road and bridge repair." The Senate Democrat leader adds that “We’re asking President Trump to work with us to make it a reality/"
As part of his agenda, Trump has promised to unveil an ambitious infrastructure package during the first 100 days of his presidency. “We will build new roads, and highways, and bridges, and airports, and tunnels, and railways all across our wonderful nation,” he vowed in his Inaugural Address.
One of Trump’s top advisers said Monday, however, that the president’s plan may run into roadblocks in the Republican-led Congress.
Dem spew: ... $100 billion for energy infrastructure, and $20 billion for public and tribal lands.
Usual Dem shtick = kickbacks for me and my friends.
I so enjoy the fact the Mike Pence is always by the Presidents side, a TRUE Vice President if there ever was one.
