Biden Administration Pushes Infrastructure Bill Costing Over $2 Trillion

PROVIDENCE, RHODE ISLAND-APRIL 09: A car drives along a road in need of repair on April 09, 2021 in Providence, Rhode Island. Rhode Island consistently ranks as one of the worst states in America for the condition of its infrastructure with an estimated 24% of its roads in poor condition and 23% of its bridges standing structurally deficient. Looking to reshape the U.S. economy, President Joe Biden has recently unveiled a $2 trillion jobs, infrastructure and green energy plan called the American Jobs Plan. If passed, the proposal would create tens of thousands of jobs in construction, clean energy and technology. Many economists, engineers and politicians believe that infrastructure in the United Sates is lagging behind China and other competitive nations. (Photo by Spencer Platt/Getty Images)
