Last weekend marked another legislative achievement for US President Joe Biden when the bipartisan infrastructure bill was passed by the House. Biden is set to sign the bill into law on Monday.
The White House has announced that Biden will be signing the infrastructure bill into law on Monday. The bill marks the biggest federal investment in the country’s infrastructure to date. The bill passed the House on a bipartisan vote a few months after the Senate passed the bill on a bipartisan vote as well. 13 House Republicans joined most of the Democrats in voting in support of the bill.
In a statement, the signing ceremony would be joined by the members of Congress who helped write the $1 trillion legislation to fix the country’s roads, bridges, and airports as well as provide internet access nationwide, including rural areas and clean drinking water.
“The President will highlight how he is following through on his commitment to rebuild the middle class and the historic benefits of the Bipartisan Infrastructure Deal will deliver for American families,” said the White House in a press release.
“Millions of good-paying, union jobs for working people, improvements in our ports and transportation systems that strengthen supply chains, high-speed internet for every American, clean water for all children and families, the biggest investments in our roads and bridges in generations, the most significant investment in mass transit ever, and unprecedented investments in clean energy infrastructure,” said the White House.
The passage of the bill follows weeks of negotiations among two conflicting factions of the Democratic Party on the timing of the votes on the bill.
A day after signing the bill, Biden is set to travel to New Hampshire on Tuesday to further promote the benefits of the bipartisan infrastructure plan. The visit will be one in many as the White House looks to continue promoting the benefits of the bill to citizens. The US leader has also tasked members of his Cabinet - the secretaries of Transportation, Energy, Commerce, and Interior - as well as his Environmental Protection Agency head to promote the benefits of the bill on national and local media as well as the press.
