Biden signs historic infrastructure bill
President Biden on Monday signed a historic $1-trillion bipartisan bill that he said will overhaul the nation’s infrastructure and boost the nation’s economy, which has been battered by the COVID-19 pandemic.
“Democrats and Republicans can come together and deliver results,” the president said during a signing ceremony on the White House lawn that was attended by more than 800 labor leaders, business executives, governors, mayors and mostly Democratic lawmakers. The bill is smaller and less ambitious than Biden’s original $2.3-trillion proposal, which was trimmed to ensure Republican support in the Senate.
