Carter Statement on Biden's "Infrastructure" Plan
Washington,
March 31, 2021
Congressman Earl L. "Buddy" Carter (R-Ga.) released the following statement after President Joe Biden announced the Administration's plan related to infrastructure:
"America needs a strong, bipartisan infrastructure bill. Unfortunately, the Biden plan is certainly not it. Any infrastructure plan should be focused on our nation's ports, expanding rural broadband and actually improving infrastructure in this country. Just 5 percent of the Biden plan will go to repairing roads and bridges, just one percent will go to airports and less than one percent will go to our waterways and ports. This is not an infrastructure plan. This is a disguise for the Green New Deal, tax increases, and other liberal policies. Infrastructure can and should be a bipartisan issue, but it looks like President Biden isn't interested." |
