Biden signs $1 trillion infrastructure bill into law
President Joe Biden signed into law a $1 trillion infrastructure bill at a White House ceremony on Monday that drew Democrats and Republicans who pushed the legislation through a deeply divided U.S. Congress.
Donald Trump campaigned on a $1 trillion infrastructure plan. “We are going to fix our inner cities and rebuild our highways, bridges, tunnels, airports, schools, hospitals,” he said in his 2016 election night victory speech. “And we will put millions of our people to work as we rebuild it.”
trump wanted an infrastructure bill, but the Republicans who ran both the House and Senate during the early days of the trump administration met trump's request with silence.
All Republicans gave trump was tax cuts for the rich and a gutting of the IRS.
Why didn't Republicans give trump an infrastructure plan like Joe's?
