The vast majority of Republicans and Democrats and independents support the actions we're taking. And we're governing ourselves by the president's values, the president's morals, and we're not picking Democratic issues or Republican issues.
This is part of the reason why we're pushing so hard to invest in the crumbling infrastructure in this country, because we know that we need to do it.
This bill is wildly popular. This is not a hard vote. This is actually an easy vote, just like the Rescue Plan because the American public supports it. So, my hope would be it passes with overwhelming bipartisan support.
The second thing I would say on the trillion dollars on infrastructure investment, that it's a trillion dollars more than any other president has spent.
