Here’s What Is In Biden’s $2.25T Infrastructure Proposal
President Biden on Wednesday will detail a sweeping $2.25 trillion package to invest in domestic infrastructure and boost job creation, embarking on his next major legislative push following the passage of his coronavirus relief plan.
Biden’s proposal, branded as “The American Jobs Plan,” is broken up into four main parts: transportation infrastructure, modern infrastructure like broadband and upgrading buildings, investing in the care economy to aid health workers, and funding innovation and research and development of future technologies.
“We think that these are investments that we, as a country, cannot afford not to make,” an administration official told reporters. “This plan reflects the president’s commitment to recognizing the moment that we are in as an important moment to demonstrate that the United States and democracies can deliver for the people that they serve and that the stakes of this moment are high.”
