“There’s just no credible reason for not investing in manufacturing for infrastructure materials and supply chain items…Public policy has got to be in the right direction this way.”
“We need to make sure we protect the steel industry we have, and also build it for the future of the infrastructure projects – not for one bridge but multiple bridges, transit, and also any type of construction of infrastructure.”
“We need to build things in this country to have a successful economy…If we’re going to really rebuild this country we need to help the economy in this country by using US domestic products in the supply chain.”

Check out this split-screen comparison that celebrates both spans!

Dear Friends,

 

It is encouraging to finally see clear signs of federal action to support a comprehensive US infrastructure investment plan.

 

Now more than ever, our advocacy is needed to keep stakeholders informed and connected, and to hold politicians to their promises to finally fix our nation’s ailing infrastructure.

 

We have already engaged nearly 280,000 users, and hoping to add many more as interest continues to grow.

 

We require your support in order to rise to this occasion, to make the most of this opportunity. Please consider making a tax-deductible donation to InfrastructureUSA.org.
