Legislative Outline for Rebuilding Infrastructure in America

Tuesday, February 13th, 2018
Trump Infrastructure Plan 2018

I have enclosed with this message my Administration’s framework for rebuilding infrastructure in America. Our Nation’s infrastructure is in an unacceptable state of disrepair, which damages our country’s competitiveness and our citizens’ quality of life.

As a result, the United States has fallen further and further behind other countries. It is time to give Americans the working, modern infrastructure they deserve.

But today, current estimates indicate that America’s transportation infrastructure is not keeping pace with demands or the needs of our growing economy, for today or for future generations.

THE AMERICAN JOBS ACT
The American people understand that the economic crisis and the deep recession weren’t created overnight and won’t be solved overnight. The economic security of the middle class has been under attack for decades. That’s why President Obama believes we need to do more than just recover from this economic crisis – we need to rebuild the economy the American way, based on balance, fairness, and the same set of rules for everyone from Wall Street to Main Street.
