This is the kind of funding and progress I had in mind when I worked with my colleagues in the Senate to pass the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law.
I promised the people of Georgia that I would walk with them, even as I work for them, and so it’s good to be walking through this neighborhood today and to think that over the weekend we were actually able to bring some good news.
