The INVEST in America Act will put millions of Americans to work building 21st century infrastructure that will make us again the envy of the world. This is not Eisenhower 7.0, as the chairman often reminds us. Of course, we are going to fix our highways, but we are not just going to keep building bigger and wider ones. We are going to do something as new and as bold today as the Interstate Highway System was in the 1950s. So, yes, the bill invests in EV charging. Yes, it makes record investments in passenger rail, including our important Hudson Tunnel between New Jersey and New York. And please, don't tell New Jersey commuters that they are riding the Green New Deal to work every day. They just want better trains that will get there faster than they did 100 years ago. Anyone who wants to do just what we have been doing here for the last few decades is basically saying they want to let other countries, like China, master and market the clean energy technologies of the future. Well, I am not going to cede our leadership. I want America to win. I want America to do big and bold and great things again. Mr. Speaker, I am going to vote for this bill.
