This plan is focused on the future with high impact investments in the safe integration of emerging technologies.
There is no doubt that safe, affordable, accessible, and convenient transportation is critical for everyone's quality of life.
the idea of an infrastructure bank is a good idea. It is not a complete solution to every problem we have, but it is another way that we can get progress made on our infrastructure.
We believe in strengthening our Buy America program to make sure the American taxpayer dollars are being invested in American projects built by American hands with American products.
