His announcement followed an Oval Office meeting with a bipartisan group of senators, who were pitching a breakthrough pared-down agreement worth about $953 billion reached the night before. Their proposed framework includes about $559 billion in new spending that will be invested in roads, broadband internet, electric utilities and other traditional infrastructure projects.
So they announced they reach a agreement on 953 billion dollars for infrastructure but only 559 billion actually for infrastructure…what’s other 400 billion for?
A win for who? Now I know extremely forum left-wing radicals are disappointing that they didn’t get their trillions…but 559 billion for infrastructure and 400 billion for what? Democrats green new deal plan?
It’s new spending. So of the proposed 1.2 Trillion over the next eight years, $579 Billion is what is being added. So the US would currently be spending around $600 Billion over the next eight years.
Good to see some bipartisanship on both sides of the isle, I hope congressional Republicans and the Biden administration can continue to work together.
Never thought we would actually have infrastructure week become real
It’s just reckless spending at this point no accountability towards the monstrosity of debt they are laying down as they will continuously kick it down the road, weakening the dollar as we approach and expected 50 trillion in debt by 2025.
